After having surgery at st George's Hospital to remove lower right of my lung, I came to country park practice to have stitches removed by new practice nurse, which was done, the practice nurse noticed one of wounds wasn't healing as it should, On 18th April I saw the practice nurse to have dressing changed, after having my blood pressure, Temperature and heart rate monited the nurse was very concerned and called Croydon hospital, I went to A&E Dept, where I had blood tests and ECG, they found I had a very serious bug in my wound, and needed immediate IV Antibiotics, I was kept in hospital until 25th April, I'm so grateful to new practice nurse for being thorough and caring because this infection could have made me very unwell, the new practice nurse is still dressing my wound 3 times a week, and always checks me over,
I've had a very bad few months after my mum passing away in December 2018, being treated with compassion and dignity means a lot to me, I feel the practice nurse has gone above and beyond to make me feel better
