I fell off my bicycle. I had concussion, and an open fracture to my elbow.
The care I had was absolutely excellent. Hairmyres A&E from the receptionist, porters, nurses, radiographers and Dr were all very professional friendly and caring. It took a long time in there but they were extremely busy.
I was transferred by ambulance to Wishaw hospital, ward 16. The staff here continued the high standards of care and nothing was too much trouble. I witnessed compassion and care given to an elderly patient who joined our ward.
I underwent surgery to my elbow and was discharged the following day.
I would like to thank all the staff involved - you were brilliant!
