I recently attended ward B6 for surgery as a day case.
Was welcomed and prepared for my operation by a very professional and caring nurse. All paperwork completed. Was seen by surgeon and anaesthetist. Everyone introduced themselves. Felt relaxed and confident that my other health problems were being noted.
Walked to theatre with the nurse who admitted me, which I appreciated.
Came round from the anaesthetic and given pain relief in recovery room. Soon back to the ward.
I had pain relief when needed and was very comfortable.
Given a light meal and hot drink quite soon.
My medication and discharge paperwork was ready by early afternoon and I was home after, with instructions about action needed if problems occurred. I had none.
I am very impressed with how well organised the whole process was. Couldn’t praise the staff enough.
