I would like to thank Crompton Hospital for their wonderful care of my husband, who was recently admitted there when he broke the top of his femur in a fall. The anaesthetist was incredible, as was the orthopedic surgeon. The whole procedure was done under epidural, due to him being high risk for a general anaesthetic. We are so grateful to them both.
Then a thank you to the marvellous nursing staff who took care of him in high care and in the general ward afterwards. All of the nursing staff were lovely, caring and professional. A special mention to nursing sister Swazi, for her cheerful sense of humour throughout his stay there.
Keep well all of you and stay safe. May God bless you always.
