"Dedication and patience"

About: Inverclyde Royal Hospital / Day Surgery Unit (K south) Inverclyde Royal Hospital / Trauma & orthopaedics Royal Alexandra Hospital / Accident & Emergency Royal Alexandra Hospital / Trauma & orthopaedics (wards 21-23)

(as the patient),

I had a total hip replacement at Inverclyde hospital Greenock

Everything went well staff were excellent in ward K north

After 10 days unfortunately my hip joint came out, went to RAH A&E and the hip was put back in was sent home, the hip then came back out on the same day, went back to RAH and was admitted to ward 21 

The next day went back to theatre and hip was put back in but then had to spend 5 days in bed with limited movement

After the 5 days went back to theatre for another procedure after 4 days then was able to go home

I would like to thank all the staff involved in every aspect of my stay at RAH, especially the dedication and patience shown by everyone on ward 21 the care I received was excellent from everyone

I would like to name staff members Adele, Angela , Chelsea, Esther, Tracy, Kayliegh, Tegyn ,Charlotte ,Rachael, Toluwase, Phoebe, Pauline, Jackie and William. 

George the physio, Gabriel and Mae from OT.

Sorry if I have missed anyone but there was a lot of people involved

The food on the ward was good with plenty choice 

The long hours the staff work and the pressures they are under, I believe they deserve more support and resources for the dedication they are giving.
