We were visited last week by The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Wes Streeting, to see how our work helping patients with musculoskeletal problems is helping to reduce the electives care waiting list, through innovations in orthopaedics in operating theatres, such as the use of robotics, and research.

Wes commented: “It has been inspiring to see this truly great example of patient care at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, which is helping give people back their mobility, independence, and quality of life.”

Did you know Antibiotics don’t work for colds and flu? 🤧

Only taking them for the right things helps to keep them working for when you and your family need them most.

Always seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional before taking antibiotics, and only when prescribed.

Meet Yvonne, Veteran and ROH volunteer 🎖

Yvonne has been a volunteer at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital for over 15 years. She’s volunteered in a few different roles over the years, including as a greeter at outpatients, and now helps on the wards.

Before her time as a volunteer Yvonne was in the WRAC, the Women’s Royal Army Corp, and the Territorial Army (now called the Army Reserves), part of the Queen Alexandra Royal Army Nursing Corp (QARANC).

She had the opportunity to go overseas during her time with QARANC, serving in Cyprus, Germany and Belgium, where she would support on the wards and in outpatients .“I enjoyed every bit – if I was younger I’d do it all again. We worked hard, but we had a good time.”

Yvonne regularly attends local events to meet up with her fellow veterans, including ROH’s Armed Forces community events, and enjoys meeting new people who also served. “It’s very social, the comradeship. You never lose that.”

After having worked for the NHS 40 years in various roles and her time in the Territorial Army, volunteering keeps Yvonne active.

“I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, and getting up in the morning and coming here is lovely. I work on the wards and meet a lot of people, I like helping people. Exercise is the best remedy I think - I don’t feel my age.”

Staff at ROH gathered this morning in our Remembrance Garden to remember the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces community from the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.

We are committed to supporting the Armed Forces and in October we were proud to be re-accredited as a Veterans Aware Organisation. Gaining the accreditation last year in April 2024 signifies we are committed to supporting our patients and our staff who have connections with the Armed Forces.
