cast nurse
The 'cast nurse' popped by and did the following:
* Cast needed trimming, edges lining with water resistant tape & some 'mole skin' for extra softness.
* Checked for cast rubbing around the edges.
She also advised on general cast care and we were handed some leaflets. The bulk of our chat was about the lady we'd met prior to our visit to hospital as she was working with this nurse to produce more information. It appeared we'd come well informed, which was nice.
Things like: nappys, keeping it clean, keep it dry, etc. All good stuff.
