Receptionist went above and beyond with help

I have just been away with my mum who is currently receiving palliative care. We were told that she needed to register with a surgery near where we were staying and for them to refer her to the district nursing team. I phoned one surgery a few days before we left and the receptionist was rather unhelpful and said I would need to call in and it could take five days for it to go through. We were only going for five days so that wasn't particularly practical for us. I was going to have to try elsewhere as I wasn't confident about other options available. Once we arrived at our accommodation I searched for a surgery again and another practice came up first so I gave them a call. How refreshingly different they were. The receptionist was courteous and supportive, she said to call in and fill in a form and they would handle the rest. I called in and spoke to a member of staff who gave me a short form to complete with a few details and said that she would sort out the remainder. An hour later this staff member phoned me and informed me that everything had been arranged. She passed on the number for emergency contact and that was that, all done. Thank you to the staff member and everyone at the surgery for putting our minds at ease and allowing us to enjoy a much needed break.
