Arrived at Jubilee ward on one morning for a total hip replacement, met the ward sister, who put me at ease, showed me to my bed. I then saw the anaesthetist who talked me through the type of anaesthetic I would have, and then my consultant who told me about the procedure.
Had the operation that afternoon, all went well. The next morning the anaesthetist checked to see if I was ok as did my consultant, who explained a few things to me, he told me all went well, I went down for an x-ray, then saw the physio, who had me walking on crutches and also up and down stairs, everyone seemed to be happy, so I was discharged and home that afternoon.
My thanks to everyone involved
