The nurses after my procedure was done were amazing both in the high dependency ward and the normal ward. Also the cast nurses were so kind and understood the pain i was in and really helped calm me.

Nurse in the high dependency unit by the name of Kay Horgan. Her care and attention to my care after my surgery was exemplary and the very best. She ensured my pain relief was well controlled and even gave me a wash before l returned to the ward despite being very busy. The nursing staff on the ward should take a leaf out of her book.
