"All of the staff on this ward were excellent."

About: Burnley General Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

It is very hard to convey in words just how good my stay on this ward was.

I had a total knee replacement in January and was told to report to ward 15 Burnley General Hospital.

Everybody on this ward from the surgeon to the sister, nurses to auxiliary, porters to the catering staff were excellent 

I can’t say anyone by name otherwise I would have to name everyone the care and bedside manner was exemplary.

I have in the past been an inpatient at MRI and BRH this was by far the most enjoyable stay

I thank them all
