O que come\u00e7ou como uma luta para caminhar confortavelmente transformou-se numa hist\u00f3ria de cura e esperan\u00e7a. Com a ajuda da sua equipa da Southcoast Health, Cindy est\u00e1 a andar forte novamente - grata pelos cuidados e compaix\u00e3o que mudaram a sua vida.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quando Cindy come\u00e7ou a sentir dores cada vez mais fortes na anca, soube que era altura de procurar ajuda. O que come\u00e7ou por ser um desconforto ocasional tornou-se gradualmente numa dor constante. Durante uma viagem ao Havai e ao Jap\u00e3o, Cindy apercebeu-se da gravidade da situa\u00e7\u00e3o.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Cindy<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

\"Nalguns dias, mal conseguia andar\", partilhou. \"Foi ent\u00e3o que percebi que precisava de fazer alguma coisa.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

De regresso a casa, Cindy foi encaminhada para Arthur Manoli, m\u00e9dico<\/a>cirurgi\u00e3o ortop\u00e9dico em Ortopedia da Sa\u00fade de Southcoast.<\/a> Desde a sua primeira consulta, sentiu-se confiante de que estava em m\u00e3os capazes e atenciosas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"O Dr. Manoli foi compreensivo\", disse ela. \"Ele dedicou tempo para responder a todas as perguntas e nunca me rebaixou. Ele me manteve informada a cada passo do caminho - antes, durante e depois da cirurgia - para que eu sempre soubesse o que esperar.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cindy foi submetida a uma pr\u00f3tese total da anca em Hospital Memorial de Charlton<\/a>onde afirma que os cuidados que recebeu excederam todas as expectativas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Toda a equipa foi fant\u00e1stica\", disse ela. \"Desde o processo pr\u00e9-operat\u00f3rio at\u00e9 \u00e0 recupera\u00e7\u00e3o, todos me fizeram sentir confort\u00e1vel e confiante.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uma parte fundamental da sua experi\u00eancia foi a Enfermeira Navegadora Cheryl Ellis, que orientou Cindy em todas as fases do seu percurso cir\u00fargico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A Cheryl era uma voz de apoio constante\", recorda Cindy. \"Esteve sempre dispon\u00edvel, sempre paciente e foi um prazer trabalhar com ela. Certificou-se de que eu tinha tudo o que precisava e que compreendia perfeitamente todas as partes do processo.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Em reconhecimento pela sua compet\u00eancia e compaix\u00e3o, Cindy nomeou o Dr. Manoli, a sua equipa e Cheryl como Southcoast Stars - um agradecimento sincero \u00e0s pessoas que a ajudaram a voltar a andar confortavelmente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agora que n\u00e3o tem dores e voltou a desfrutar da sua vida quotidiana, Cindy est\u00e1 cheia de gratid\u00e3o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"N\u00e3o posso dizer o suficiente sobre a Southcoast Health\", disse ela. \"O Dr. Manoli, a sua equipa e a Enfermeira Navegadora Cheryl foram todos muito al\u00e9m. Eles me trataram como uma pessoa, n\u00e3o apenas como uma paciente - e isso fez toda a diferen\u00e7a.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
