I AM writing to express our family’s gratitude and praise to the Poole paramedics who attended my husband when he had a totally unexpected critical cardiac arrest on our bowling green – thanks to the intervention of two of the bowlers followed by the paramedics he is still with us and progressing well.

Our thanks go to the team in A&E (Poole General) followed by the professional and caring teams in the intensive care unit, also at Poole General Hospital.

I would be grateful if you would publish this letter as I personally feel these people are in the front line yet behind the scenes and often don’t get the recognition they deserve.

From a very appreciative wife and family.
