My dad was admitted into ward 2 glenrothes hospital in January this year having spent the previous 5 months in Victoria Hospital. My dad has several co-morbidities on top of this was diagnosed with hypo delirium and was recovering from a hip fracture he was refusing to eat and take his meds.
The difference in my dad since moving to ward 2 at glenrothes has been incredible. He no longer displays symptoms of delirium, he is able to walk with a zimmer frame, he is eating well , put weight back on and taking his meds.
I can not thank the staff enough for the care they have gave my dad. The staff are always friendly, easy to approach and kept me updated with my dads care.
My dad was in tears when he left the hospital as he said ‘ I will miss the staff’.
Thank you to all the staff for the excellent care you provided to my dad, even when he was challenging, you all deserve a medal.
