"My care prior to, during and after surgery at Lincoln County Hospital"

About: Lincoln County Hospital / General surgery

(as a service user),

My problem was a deteriorating mobility due to knee pain. I was referred to orthopaedic clinic I was been either prior to or on time in all of my attendances, However just prior to my necessary surgery admission I was sent for blood tests and had an hour and a half wait to get the test done. On the admission day I arrived at the day care lounge on time and almost immediately called through and prepared for surgery. My consultant once again told me what was going to be done, I was then admitted to a ward for an overnight stay, I had no one at home who could stay with ( a requirement following general anaesthesia. I was cared for extremely well by all the staff pain control was excellent and I was discharged the following day. All staff worked extremely hard and nothing was to much trouble to them.

The food however I found was poor and unappetising
