Chicken bone stuck in my throat

Story from nhs.uk

"Chicken bone stuck in my throat"

About: Doncaster Royal Infirmary

Anything else?

I had swallowed a chicken bone and the next day realised how serious this was and drove myself to A/E at 6am. My details were taken and was admitted to Ward S12. I am a fit and healthy elderly lady but I was very concerned about my condition. However from the start I was treated with respect and kept informed about what was going to be done and why, I have to say I am very impressed with the professionalism of all the staff - without exception, and very grateful for all the kindness I received during my stay.

Thanks so much for sharing this with us. It's great to hear you received such good care and that you're now recovering well. It must have been a very worrying time for you and I'm really pleased you were treated with respect and kept informed. We have forwarded your feedback to the Emergency Dept and S12 teams so it can be shared with the staff there.
