CRG Patient Representative – Gordon Sturmey
In July 2013 we welcomed Gordon Sturmey as the Pathology Clinical Reference Group’s patient representative.
|
Gordon was admitted to Royal Berskshire Hospital on the 18th January 2006 with acute paralysis which was later diagnosed as Gullian-Barre Syndrome. This resulted in a stay of almost 4 months at the Royal Berks, a month of which was spent within the intensive care unit. Since being discharged, Gordon has been asked to represent the Royal Berks as a Patient Representative, regularly gives induction courses to ICU nurses on his experiences within ICU, been involved within Clinical Governance, the Donations Commitee and acts as a local contact for the Gullian-Barre syndrome support group.

As our new patient representative we have explored Gordon’s condition of Gullian-Barre Sydrome and have documented Gordon’s experience by firstly interviewing Gordon on his experience by means of video & then using his case notes to explore what pathology tests he would have had during his 4 month stay at the Royal Berks Hospital.
