In nursing school you learn that you voice every little thing you need to do to the patient. They are at their most vulnerable. They need as much of their dignity and as much respect as you can give them. If they are awake you ask their permission. If sleep, you tell them before they do it. They may be aware of sound and therefore they should know what you will do before you do it.
As an expat from London,I am in awe with the care given at St George's. I am a retired RN that is aware of the expedited care that is given to the patients. Much respect from Florida.
I felt badly for Su. She had already suffered with serious health issues before her accident. I always marvel at the amount of compassion and expertise of St. George's staff.
When someone has ortheoarthritis or any type of bone deteriation their bones are fragile and painful. I'm in awe that Susan's grandson was allowed to be on her mobility scooter wiith her.
It's not exactly bones that are fragile and painful---it's joints, only. Any type of arthritis causes inflammation and damage to joint tissue. The bones, themselves, are not affected.
@@anglophils645 Very familiar with arthristis as I have it in my hands. Very aware of the painful, swollen joints but a child still should not be on a mobility scooter with someone who is incapacitated to the point of needing one no matter how much the child enjoys it. It's not his toy but a instrument to assist disabeled persons. That is my point!
@@river8760 He can walk beside her and still connect, maybe assist her if needed as he gets older and treasure his time with her. Not judging just stating the obvious. I am just so happy that she was not injured any worse. They aren't the same as wheelchairs and she likely doesn't need that yet, just not be on her feet for long periods of time. As stated above they likely stopped that.
Ted was such a beautiful soul, bless him he was a fighter. I’m sorry to see he passed in 2020. His wife Jean is equally beautiful. Such a lovely family. I’m so sorry for your loss.
In the final few moments through the follow up, the producers so often show the family, and they talk as though the worst very sadly has happened. Then in many cases , into the screen the ex-patient pops! And it a 'that's so good' from us viewers.
At one of my nursing jobs, my hubby would occasionally complain that I was never punched out on time. He did eventually learn that emergencies never happen on schedule (even tho' I was working on a med-surg ward at the time). One time, our unit had been running full tilt like an anthill had been kicked. And just before the next crew come on, everything stopped. It was very difficult to explain why were all sitting there doing nothing!!! So, I can definitely relate to all these stories.
I'm so sorry Ted passed away at the end. I wonder if it still had to do with his accident. Jean is lovely, the whole family very loving and caring. I wish them all the best and hope Jean can cope with the loss of Ted. ❤ Very pleased that Su recovered completely. I didn't like think she would, taken how badly the concussion affected her. Her husband is wonderful as well. So much love shown in this video. ❤
My mom has widespread osteoarthritis and she's 55. The fact she can still walk impressive considering her knees are bone on bone (she has no knee cartilage to cushion). She has it in her spine and hands and shoulder and wrists too.
Poor Su showed the reason why kids should never ride on a mobility scooter. It changes the whole center of gravity and balance. I've used a scooter for most of my adult life, and now a powerchair, so I know what I'm talking about. If the kid is small, they should be in a stroller, otherwise, walk. I hope Su is doing well, and the daughter has learned the lesson about never letting her kid ride with Grandma.
They sent the lady with the concussion, Sue, HOME the same night?!?! Bloody hell! I was in an accident and suffered a concussion. Kept for observation at least over night. 8 hrs in I deteriorated and they found a minorish brain bleed. Later diagnosed with post concussion syndrome. It took months to recover.
Holland is beautiful. Even more when the tulips. We were there in the 70s. My dad was stationed in germany with the american air force. We had so much fun us four kids
NHS care is technically free The UK has a publicly-funded healthcare system called the National Health System or NHS. Other countries or governments offer health insurance to their citizens. In contrast, the funding from UK’s healthcare system comes from taxation. This system allows the NHS to provide “free” healthcare to UK residents. In short, healthcare services are free at the point of contact. However, residents still technically pay for them via taxation. The UK uses a national insurance system. Each resident pays an amount that goes towards healthcare funding based on their income. These payments are deducted automatically from their salaries and paid on their behalf by their employer.
For British viewers: It may seem a bit much to have a certain amount of income deducted from your pay. However, look at what a wonderful use of income this is. Unlike in the U.S. where if you so much as sneeze, your paying out the nose. Pun intended.
My granddaughter used to ride on mine when she was a toddler. She is 12 now and still like s riding with me she squats down on the foot stool. You worry about your kids and grands and we in scooters will mind ours
As someone who has multiple issues using a mobility scooter, you are correct. It IS for the person that needs it. Our needs are not solely physical and having a grandchild having fun helping me drive my scooter brings them and me pleasure. We are not solely our disability. We are whole people that don’t need ignorant people saying things such as in these comments and limiting our whole life experience. Of course I try to be careful because I have precious cargo but if I had to choose a fall or no joyful memories with my grandchildren , I’ll take a fall every time
@@victoriousvalentine9779and in doing so end up even more in need. One can make memories without a mobility scooter. I’m a great grandmother 80 years old and can’t see why I should go looking for trouble and making myself more of a burden than ever.
Oh goody. I have osteoarthritis. Yippie. I’m 70. My knees, shoulders, hands, hips, but it’s not constant . Sometimes I don’t feel so bad. I take 1 gabepentin 300 a day
I hate that Su’s husband called her 3 kids, “toe rags” that’s very derogatory. I’m glad that my husband didn’t feel that way about my two sons. He lovingly adopted them..
Possible he did this 4 decades ago and back then husbands had many more privileges than wives. Their were considered the head of the family and thus the social standard was they had the right to make unilateral decisions for anyone in “his” family.
Was the grandson injured when the scooter overturned? He should not have been on there. What if it had turned over on him? He would have been crushed like a grape!

I like that even though people aren’t responsive they still tell them what their doing to them
It's lovely. Because, maybe they can hear you, even if in a coma.
As s as nurse, I always do this. It’s a patient respect thing for me. They can hear you… always.

I agree with you! I’m in Florida also and I wish our hospitals were as kind and caring as these 🥴

I'm guessing they put a stop to that
She was simply connecting with her grandson. No need to be judgemental of the situation.

It's nice to hear from the family of the patients all the stories of their life God bless them

Jean is such a cool lady.
I feel so sad for Jean, with Ted being so bad she has sadness in her eyes and fear

Thank you for these uploads of this series. I love them❤
The painful look on Jean's face when she heard the possible life changes. It ripped at my heart and brought tears to my eyes.
Lovely. Simply lovely. All life is pricelessly precious.

Banijay Bluelight, I loved this video so much, I had to hit the like button!
Same! Banijay Bluelight is an absolute star for uploading these!
My husband fell backwards down our stairs, from the top, six years ago. Mod TBI. Yesterday I had to put him on hospice. 😢
Oh god. I work in the field. I’m so so so sorry 😢❤❤
😢
Victoria, that's so sad. Love and hugs to you and your husband.
😢 sending love and prayers to you and your family!
That's really hard to bear. I'm sorry❤
What a sweet soul Ted and a lovely family. So sad that he passed.
I'm so sorry Ted passed away at the end. I wonder if it still had to do with his accident. Jean is lovely, the whole family very loving and caring. I wish them all the best and hope Jean can cope with the loss of Ted. ❤
Very pleased that Su recovered completely. I didn't like think she would, taken how badly the concussion affected her. Her husband is wonderful as well. So much love shown in this video. ❤
Another terrific video.
Ted was so precious, it breaks my heart that he passed away. At least we got some extra time with family before he went and that was a blessing.😘
Fantastic episode. Have a great day my friend ❤️🙂⚘️🏥.
I love this show better than any American program! And I cannot with how cute Su's Mini is! Pink girl just like me!
I’m loving watching hospital videos.
My mom has widespread osteoarthritis and she's 55. The fact she can still walk impressive considering her knees are bone on bone (she has no knee cartilage to cushion). She has it in her spine and hands and shoulder and wrists too.
Oh geez I know how she feels. Knees bone on bone. Back is one misstep to slide down my butt crack .
Rest in peace beautiful Ted ❤ xxx
Poor Su showed the reason why kids should never ride on a mobility scooter. It changes the whole center of gravity and balance.

Would some nurses pull Ted up on his bed so his feet are not hanging over?
I think they had more important concerns dealing with an agitated patient and his health than worrying about his feet hanging out…🤦♀️
Great episode!
They sent the lady with the concussion, Sue, HOME the same night?!?!
Bloody hell! I was in an accident and suffered a concussion. Kept for observation at least over night. 8 hrs in I deteriorated and they found a minorish brain bleed. Later diagnosed with post concussion syndrome. It took months to recover.
They did a scan and know it’s not serious in this case.
She then had to come back to the hospital for 2 days.
Holland is beautiful. Even more when the tulips. We were there in the 70s. My dad was stationed in germany with the american air force. We had so much fun us four kids
In the USA we have a different approach to our ERs its wild to see how different countries do medicine.
On July 9 2022 I stepped out of bed and broke my foot in 6 places. All I did was getting up
Stop saying she’s going to be a cripple, it’s horrible the wording disabled would be kinder.
Very important comment, thanks for ponting out! The word cripple is a discrimination. 😢
Didn't expect the old Oilers jacket... wow
For American viewers:
Everything you see here is free. There will be no bill. The care and technology is world class.
I repeat: Everything is free.
NHS care is technically free

Fabulous system.
Yep and Sue's husband said the surgeons screwed up her surgeries. Socialized Medicine at its best. No thanks!!! Besides, no such thing as free.
For British viewers:
It may seem a bit much to have a certain amount of income deducted from your pay. However, look at what a wonderful use of income this is. Unlike in the U.S. where if you so much as sneeze, your paying out the nose. Pun intended.
No bill in Canada either. America is backwards with regard to This universal healthcare.
marvelous story great people ❤
The kid should never have been on the mobility scooter
What done is done. Going forward, we understand. Now she needs care and compassion.
Kids should not be on a mobility scooter at all that is dangerous, and they are only for the elderly and disabled
My granddaughter used to ride on mine when she was a toddler. She is 12 now and still like s riding with me she squats down on the foot stool. You worry about your kids and grands and we in scooters will mind ours
Sorry about them Oilers Mike
Mobility scooter is for person who needs it
did you not hear she had hip issues?
@@delaneythompson1161 I WAS TALKING ABOUT HER ALLOWING HER GRANDSON STAND ON THE FRONT OF THE SCOOTER..SEE WHAT HAPPENED??

Life-altering brain injuries can happen to anybody at any time. Let's be careful out there! Audience wishes hapless victims all the best. Cheers!
He Should NOT do Stairs Anymore!! High Fall Risk!!
What the hell is wrong with people? A mobility scooter is a medical tool! Not a play thing! Also, " she protected my son" WTF?,🤬
How much time after Ted fell that he passed?
I have osteoarthritis and its no fun. I know how su feels.

He meant that affectionately
Learn the English sarcasm... They have alot of sayings like we do in America. The English have a wonderful sense of humor.
I thought he said “terrors”!
What is a toe-rag?
Sounds like maybe a little careless?
You can get a passport for someone without them knowing. Surprising. Doesn't sound right.

Ha ha. Su's husband has an Edmonton Oilers jacket. I love it. I'm watching from Edmonton ❤❤
Your son should never have been on the scooter with your mom.

Ultra processed foods! Thanks Big Food/ Big Pharma.
They need to have at least one portable head CT scanner ("halo") in their A&E ward, if they consider themselves a Trauma Centre.
All hospitals are not the same. It works for them leave it alone
