Dee's Story

After a spinal operation in 2019 left her paralysed from the neck down, Deirdre faced the challenge of adapting to a new way of life. Determined to remain positive and independent, she sought a care arrangement that could meet her clinical needs while enabling her to live a full and happy life at home.

24-Hour Support Following Life-Changing Surgery

Deirdre underwent a hip replacement in 2019, but complications during recovery led to the discovery of a spinal tumour. Surgery to remove it caused damage to her diaphragm, resulting in paralysis from the neck down. When it became clear that she would require 24-hour care, Deirdre was introduced to Superior Healthcare.

Comprehensive Care at Home

Following an in-depth consultation, Superior Healthcare put in place a 24-hour, two-to-one care package to ensure Deirdre always has support on hand. Her team manage essential daily needs, including specialist equipment, airway management, and other medical procedures, providing reassurance that her health and comfort are always prioritised.

For Deirdre, the most valued part of her care is the attitude of her team — nothing is too much trouble, and they are always ready to listen. Whether maintaining her equipment, assisting with routines, or simply sharing a chat when she needs it, the team’s approach has helped restore her confidence and independence.

Confidence and Quality of Life

Superior Healthcare has not only met Deirdre’s medical needs but has also given her the belief that she can still enjoy life and do the things she loves. With a dedicated team behind her, she continues to live at home, secure in the knowledge that her care is in expert hands.
