"Grantham district hospital"

About: Grantham & District Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as the patient),

I was only on ward 1 bay 3 overnight to have a total right knee replacement but I was looked after so well by all the nursing staff, surgical team and the ladies who made me tea and toast and a lovely lunch before I left. Nothing was to much trouble. One of the lovely nurses even making me tea and biscuits at 3am when I couldn’t sleep. I was kept informed of when I would be going down to theatre and what would happen next. My surgery went as planned and once I was back on the ward they made me a much needed cup of tea and toast as I hadn’t eaten since 6pm the night before.. I honestly can’t recommend Grantham district hospital enough. The team are a credit to their profession and I would have no hesitation in recommending this hospital to anyone needing a hip or knee replacement. Thanks again to all the nursing staff for putting me at ease and looking after me so well. I will be asking if I can have my next knee replacement to be done here when I need it xx

Thank you for your amazing comments and we will share with the whole team as they work so hard to give quality care and your comments are certainly testament to the fact they are getting it right.

I am pleased you would recommend us and we certainly hope to see you again.

And a cup of tea and biscuits at 3am is certainly the best medicine you can give:)

Best wishes

Julie
