I recently broke my hip and was taken by ambulance to the Royal Blackburn Hospital.
I was taken to the accident and emergency department and was seen immediately by the doctor and nurses.
I was operated on the next day and had a full hip replacement successfully.
With regards to the NHS I have nothing but praise for the excellent care and attention I received on ward B22 (in what were traumatic circumstances).
