"The care was exceptional and brilliant"

About: University Hospital Monklands / Stroke/Care of the Elderly

(as the patient),

In November 23, I had a minor stroke - I am in my 50s. I was admitted to the Monklands Hospital, where the care was exceptional and brilliant, and I got out a week later.

Aftercare from stroke nurse Elaine was brilliant and I was given loads of encouragement to get back to fitness.

Now after six months doing well and gonna start walking in the country more regularly and have a go at swimming  again.

Advice is keep trying to find meds that suit you and constantly consult professionals. The support is there, just ask for it.

Hi beidqr64,

Thanks you so much for taking the time to write about your experience. I am glad that you had a positive experience of our stroke service. I will ensure that Elaine and the ward team are aware of this. I hope that you continue to do well.
