Hip replacement after a fall at home

Posted By AW30

"Hip replacement after a fall at home"

About: Falkirk Community Hospital / ReACH Falkirk Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Orthopaedic Ward B23

(as the patient),

After experiencing a fall at home, I was taken to Forth Valley Hospital where an x-ray confirmed I had fractured my left hip, requiring surgery. The staff on Ward B23 were exceptionally kind and attentive, ensuring I received excellent care throughout my stay.

Following my discharge, I was supported by Christian (Physiotherapist) and Anna (Occupational Therapist) from the ReACH team. Both were incredibly helpful and friendly, making sure I had everything I needed to aid my recovery.

Hi AW30,

I am sorry to hear that you have fallen and broken your hip but glad that Christian and Anna have helped to support you recovery and that you found them to be both friendly and helpful making sure you had everything you needed. I will let Christian and Anna know that you have provided this feedback, thanks for taking the time to share your experience of the ReACH Team.
