"They are always there if I need them at any time"

About: Sligo/Leitrim Mental Health Services

(as a relative),

I have suffered with depression for a long number of years. Any time I feel I need to talk or get help from the Leitrim Mental Health Services they are always there either by telephone or I can get a quick appointment to call in and have a chat face to face which I find very beneficial. I find the team are very helpful and I feel they are always there if I need them at any time. I have always experienced excellent care and attention from the team in Carrick On Shannon.

Dear Alfie C

Thank you for your kind words and feedback in relation to your experience of exceptional care and attention from the team in Carrick-on-Shannon. I will pass on your feedback to the team.

We provide a Nurse led seven day a week contact for people who experience Mental Health difficulties in Summerhill Lodge Mental Health Care Centre in Carrick-on-Shannon..For some people a phone call can be very helpful to discuss any issue with staff. For others calling in and having a chat face to face can make all the difference. Knowing there is someone there to talk to can be reassuring and helpful.

Once again thank you for your kind words and I wish you well in the future.

Kind Regards

Denis O Brien
