"My stay at day procedures unit for a laparoscopy"

I recently attended the day procedures unit at Solihull Hospital. I am not one to usually write reviews but the whole experience was incredible, from the moment I got there the staff were great my nurses (jenny and vera) looked after me constantly I never needed anything because they were always checking in.

After the doctor and anaethetist did their rounds, I was told straight away which order the list would be so I had an idea of my wait. Again the anaethetist (emma) was so lovely! She couldn't have made me feel more comfortable if she tried. Such a good natured woman.

Once it was my turn I was collected by the ODP (glen) who again made sure I understood everything and as soon as it was time to put the cannula  in he could see I was petrified I didn't even have to say anything he took my hand straight away and I felt so much better.

Once I woke up the aftercare from Jenny was great she helped me get myself together when I was ready I had hot chocolate, squash, water, biscuits and a sandwich. Honestly they couldn't do enough for us. I wanted to write this as there is not enough recognition is the NHS for their hard work and 24/7 care.

So huge thank you to the day procedures unit and the gynaecology theatre staff, every single member at all phases of the journey at Solihull Hospital for your amazing care, I couldn't recommend you enough!
