"I had a very good experience"

About: Grantham & District Hospital / General surgery

(as a service user),

I had a very good experience at Grantham. I was welcomed on to the ward and met my nurse, Suny, who was so friendly and just a wonderful person.

Taken to theatre quite quickly, escorted by a lovely lady whose name I can’t remember. Prepped for theatre quickly and then woke up in recovery with lots of friendly people making sure I was ok.

Lunch was ok though I wasn’t too hungry. My pain was well controlled. I would have liked some more information about aftercare for my wound but luckily the hospital called the next evening. I’m pleased they did, otherwise I would have been trying to change my dressings myself.

I would recommend Grantham for day case surgery to my friend and family

Hi

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and to send it into Care Opinion, it’s a huge morale boost when patients do this.

I have shared with the team and especially Sony who will be thrilled to be mentioned.

I am so pleased to hear that the call helped you with your dressings and it was all sorted as we should be giving all of that on discharge

I hope you are recovering well

Please take care

KR

Julie
