"Hospital attendance"

About: University Hospital Hairmyres / Emergency Department University Hospital Wishaw

(as the patient),

I had a fall and broke my wrist I attended Hairmyres A&E, saw Caitlin, Mo and Scott, they were very very good, I had an x ray then they manipulated my wrist and plastered it, I got another x ray and told I needed surgery.

I then attended Wishaw General Hospital for the surgery. I was attended to by nurses Cheryl, Vicky, Lorraine and Jennifer they were all amazing, the care and attention I received was excellent.The Anaesthetist Paddy explained everything he would be doing, the consultant A Garwal explained the procedure and the surgery was done very quickly. The recovery area was handled with care and everything was explained regarding my discharge. They contacted my husband who collected me. I just want to thank everyone involved with my care, it was fantastic.

Dear Foolish runner

Thank you for taking the time to post feedback regarding your visit to our hospitals.

Where I'm sorry to hear that you suffered a fall and sustained a wrist fracture, I'm pleased that you felt you were well looked after by staff when you attended the Emergency department.

I will personally pass on your praise to Mo, Scott and Caitlin at Hairmyres Emergency department who will be delighted with your positive comments.

I do hope this finds you well on the road to recovery

Kind Regards

Carol
