"Stroke Rehabilitation"

About: Biggart Hospital / Physiotherapy

(as a relative),

My father has recently been discharged from stroke rehabilitation ward at Buchanan ward at the Biggart hospital. I want to go on record to highlight the amazing care and compassion both he and my family received whilst he was there. All the staff from the physio, nurses, student nurses, nursing assistants and domestics do a fantastic job at caring for their patients every need and working toward getting them home.

On many occasion I was distressed to see my strong father unable to do what he used to be able to achieve and all the staff have worked to get him better and home. In particular I would like to note the nurses Lynsey and Ava in their excellent care, nursing students Karen and Pam for their care and compassion towards both my father and myself who will go on to make fantastic nurses and nursing assistants Hetty and Jill and everysinlge physio.

All staff have been brilliant but these people in particular have made the journey we were on bearable and at times humorous. They possess the right amount of care, compassion, humour and tea making to an excellent standard.

cj315,

Many thanks for your kind words. It warms our hearts to hear that your dad and yourself had a very positivie experience whilst he was in Buchanan Ward. I have passed your comments on to the Charge Nurse and staff and their manager. I am so pleased your dad is home now and I truly hope he is continuing to respond well now that he is back home.
