Dickens Ward Stay

Story from nhs.uk

"Dickens Ward Stay"

About: Ashford Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

After my knee surgery I was required to stay at the Dickens Ward for nearly a week.

I have encountered truly passionate, caring and hardworking staff. They gave me confidence to persevere with my physiotherapy despite long-standing anxiety and chronic pain. Enabled me to make choices about my care and worked with me to provide the best possible solutions and outcomes for my unique situation.

I was respected, listened and supported throughout my stay also in regards to continuity of care after discharge. I am taking my medication now as prescribed.

Breakfast: Wished they had the wholemeal bread on offer as only two choices of white to choose from in the morning. This was not a brown bread guys!😀

Thank you so much everyone!
