They gave me the confidence to catch a bus on my own

"They gave me the confidence to catch a bus on my own"

About: Specialist Therapy Services / Community Stroke Team – South Notts

(as a service user),

I had my stroke 6 weeks after I had an operation on a fractured femur, I couldn't believe that 2 things had happened to me in such a short time.   When I got home from hospital I had got some use in my arm but walking was difficult, my confidence had hit rock bottom.   Then the stroke team arrived and the help and encouragement they gave me was amazing.   I got physiotherapy and exercises to get my arm and leg working again.   They gave me the confidence to catch a bus on my own.   I can't thank them enough for their care.

Thank you for your feedback for the Community Stroke Team, we really appreciate the time you have taken to let us know how we are doing. The team always strive to offer the best service they possibly can and this feedback is fantastic.

It is really important to us that our patients, families and carers let us know how well / or not we are doing in order that we shape the delivery of services to become as patient centred as we can. I appreciate that this must have been a very difficult time for you and am very pleased that we were able to help support and encourage you in your recovery.

I will ensure the team see your feedback and we wish you all the very best for the future.

Thanks

Claire
