During my scheduled surgery, the care I received from the time I entered the ward until I left was exceptional. Nurses incredibly calm and reassuring. Met anaesthetist and a surgeon before going into prep room. Both of them were able to reassure me and answered all my questions without any sense of feeling I was holding them up. In prep room for GA there was even a small element of humour which helped me relax.
In the recovery room I was monitored closely by two members of the anaesthetic team. It took me a while to ‘come round’ but again all very calm and no sense of urgency or concern.
Back on the ward, again all very comfortable and well cared for
