Breast Care Nurses
One of the things I've noticed since I've been on this forum are various discussions about Breast Care Nurses - who has one, what do they do, whether they're helpful or not, how to access one... etc, ...
@sister Like you I had a BCN when I first went into hospital. Another one came to see me the day after my Operation but since then I have heard nothing. I did call them a week after my op as I had inflammation and they advised me to go back to the hospital which I did. I had picked up an infection. I didn't get a phone call from the BCN to see if everything was OK.
I didn't think anything of it at the time. But now the subject has been brought up there does seem to be a huge difference in what different area's and BCN's do.
On saying that I wouldn't want there job for quids. There must have very broad shoulders to help so many people.
