My mother was taken by ambulance to the Accident Unit after a nasty fall. She was seen by a lovely nurse called Rob who admitted her and examined her. She was then taken to minor injuries where another lovely nurse put her arm in a sling. A doctor came to check her and she was taken to X-ray as they thought she had broken her humerus.
To cut a long story short she had only dislocated her arm and was put under anaesthetic while it was put back by a lovely doctor and 2 super nurses. After another X-ray to make sure the arm was back in place she was allowed home.
