I had a serious chainsaw accident to my hand in January this year and was taken to the Ulster Hospital emergency department. The next day I had an appointment with Plastic surgery and was then referred to an outpatient to Hand Therapy. I have received excellent service from all three departments but in particular the outpatient care I received at Hand Therapy has been outstanding. The regular physiotherapy I received has greatly aided my recovery and at no stage have I felt a burden or been rushed to discharge. I continue to get physiotherapy and meet with members of the team who assess my ongoing recovery. My hand is recovering very well and it is due to the excellent work of the staff in these departments.
