"Amazing nursing team"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Emergency Department University Hospital Wishaw / General Surgery

(as a relative),

My husband was admitted to ward 16 from A+E at Wishaw university Hospital and I was so impressed and grateful for the great treatment given by both departments.

A+E expedited his treatment by carrying out tests and giving pain relief. I should say my husband had a fall and had broken his hip. When moved to the ward he was given his operation the next day.

I'm sorry I can't give you the names of A+E staff but I have a few names for ward 16.  Special mention to Denise who was so caring, professional and friendly. We had a lot of contact with her.

Other people to mention - Pauline, Nicola, Lindsay, Hugh and I really regret not getting to know more names. What a lovely nursing team.

I should also mention Jeremy, a lovely young doctor who was so patient  when I was upset. This young man was so caring and I can honestly say he went the extra mile.

So a great big Thank You to A+E and Ward 16 in Wishaw University Hospital.
