COVID-19 | Our Story

Between 19th March and 31st May 2020, teams at Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals cared for more than 180 patients with Covid-19.
This film shines a light on some of the people who made this possible. We hear from the nurses who saw their regular roles change overnight to care for some of the sickest patients in the region; corporate teams who stepped away from their desks to mobilise a production-line that would go on to make over 30,000 surgical gowns for front-line colleagues; staff who found novel ways for families to see and speak to loved ones in hospital; and many others.
The stories may be individual, but what brings them together is how each lived experience has touched - and saved - the lives of many. This film is dedicated to the patients we treated, in recognition of the individual battle each one of them fought against the virus.

Was transferred from another hospital to RBH due to my condition getting worse as a result of covid-19, I was cared by the incredible doctors & nurses between the 1st Jan 2022 and 26th Jan 2022. I was in an induced coma and do not recall my time at RBH. I only can only say THANK YOU for getting me back to my family. Hope to personally meet you sometime soon. May God bless you and your family.
