Cotswold Spa Hospital | Elysium Healthcare

I was the first ever patient at this hospital, so my experience was somewhat unique! But overall the staff really did have the best interests of those suffering at heart. I feel thankful that I was able to help them learn and shape a service that exists today. I don’t think I made it easy! But mental illness isn’t easy- I certainly gave a fair representation of what was to come. I am now living a happy life as a 23 year old with a fantastic partner and whilst I wouldn’t say it was down to my huntercombe admission many many ago, that was not the units doing, it was that I was not willing to change. If someone is ready to recover I can see this being a very valuable service that I’m sure has progressed and gained experience since the day I walked in as the first of many patients to come!
