We had a very special visitor to our unit tonight. Almost one year after her admission to ACCU, Jeanie returned to her bed space where she spent 12 days over Christmas on a ventilator. It was fantastic to see Jeanie looking amazing and doing so well! Photo posted with consent.

Our information board for patient diaries was updated today. A diary is a detailed account of events written by staff and is extremely valuable to ICU patient recovery. Stop by ACCU @WishawGen @NHSLanarkshire for more information from staff nurse @EmmaCameron2021
