"Excellent care and support"

About: Crosshouse Hospital / Trauma & orthopaedics Three Towns Resource Centre / Physiotherapy

(as the patient),

I had arthroplasty on my left knee two weeks ago .

The care and support I received has been excellent from the initial appointments at the orthopaedic clinics,the joint school experience which outlined the operation pre and post op care and what I could expect regarding physiotherapy and pain control.

The standard of care from everyone on the staff team in theatre and in the ward was excellent .The standard of cleanliness was also excellent as was the choice and quality of the food . Despite being busy and facing many challenges the staff made time to meet all my needs with kindness and a smile.

I respond initially to most of the posts and ensure they are passed to the appropriate team whether they are compliments, observations or grumbles. It is important to make sure all issues are addressed and I try to encourage that to happen for all the posts as required.

Thank you so much for taking time to share this with us. I am delighted to hear you were cared for so well when you had your Arthroplasty and I hope you are well on the way to a full recovery. As you have shown, kindness and a smile goes a long way and we should never underestimate the benefits.

I will pass this to all the staff and I am sure they will be delighted with your lovely words.

All the best for the festive season,

Eunice
