"I felt completely supported by them"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Orthopaedic Ward B23

(as a relative),

My family member recently spent 2 months on B23. I cannot explain how amazing all the nurses have been. The ward is orthopedic but they had to deal with quite advanced dementia. They were patient, supportive and helped me through the process of getting him into a nursing home in quite challenging circumstances.  

They were often short staffed but still maintained composure in the more awful moments.  

This was a lengthy, tiring experience but I felt completely supported by the nurses and can't thank them enough.

Good afternoon,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback at what must have been such a difficult time for you and your family. I am glad to read of your positive experiences and that you felt supported here. I will share this with the B23 Team, I am sure they will be grateful to read this.

I hope your family member is settling into their new home well,

Take care,

Alex
