Had a stroke which affected the movement on my right side. When I arrived at the NRC in Edgware Community Hospital I could not move my fingers or toes. I was wheelchair bound with a blue arm support. Had a great time here with support from the whole staff, from cleaners to the doctors. They showed me kindness and respect throughout my stay.The physio team were brilliant in the gym, never give up was their motto, always try your best. Now I can walk with a four prong stick and move all my fingers. Sorry to leave but I have taken with me happy memories to remember the rest of my life. |

I fell down the stairs and I had a fractured skull and two bleeds on the brain. I came to rehab to get my self back to myself which I still dont feel me. Being at the unit has helped me a lot. The staff are really lovely and helpful. |

I was diagnosed with Guillain Barre Syndrome in Barnet General Hospital in July. I spent 8 weeks in ICU, 10 days in Spruce Ward ( mainly for Stroke Patients) and then transferred to NRC Edgware. I was very happy to come here and my experience has been very positive. The nursing staff generally have a good balance between caring for me, and encouraging me to be independent as I have improved. They have also been very welcoming and flexible towards my visitors - and even made them cups of tea. The Physios and OT teams have also helped me a lot - particularly at the gym sessions and making the steps between wheelchair and rollator/zimmer and then on to independent walking. They have assessed my home needs and arranged for the equipment to be delivered ready for a home visit. I have also enjoyed the breakfast club and cooking sessions. Although there are activities with volunteers etc in the afternoon and I have been lucky to have a lot of visitors, I feel it would be beneficial if there were a few more exercise opportunities in the afternoon ( I know we can do them independently but it is not quite the same! ) Likewise for the weekend - I have had lots of visitors and also gone out but it must be very boring for some. I have also really appreciated going into the outdoor space - particularly with grandchildren and my dog! It is a shame it looks a bit neglected - perhaps some volunteers could help! It has been great to spend 4 weeks in a ‘safe space’ while I continued to improve and with people who helped me. Also a shout out for the doctors who have answered all my questions and treated me with respect. |
