"Great telephone conversation with nurse"

About: Huddersfield Royal Infirmary

I had left A&E with a broken leg and I had a stability boot on but no plaster cast and everyone was asking me why I didn’t have a plaster cast on and I was really stressing thinking I’d left too early and was supposed to wait and get a cast put on my leg and I was in a lot of pain and I rang up the number I was given for if I needed anything and I spoke to a nurse on the phone and he was really good and looked at my records and told me that the fracture was stable and therefore didn’t need a cast and he prescribed some painkillers for me. It was a short telephone call but at the start of the call I was in tears full of stress and at the end of the call he had me laughing and I felt so much more at ease. Thank you!
