Dear Mr Ortner,
Re:Mr Nick Daniel,aged 68 years
I am writing to refer Mr Nick Daniel who require assistance in regarding his mobility.He was diagnosed with right hip osteoarthritis. He is being discharged today.
Mr Daniel presented to the hospital with severe pain on right hip and knees two month back.After that on 16 July 2019 he again got readmitted for decreased range of movement for the right hip and decreased muscular mass.His condition was not responding to antiinflammatory medication. Therefore,he underwent hip replacement surgery.
Post operatively, Physiotherapy were started at the hospital two days back and he had uneasiness to hip area.
It would be appreciated, if you could continue his physiotherapy until he makes full recovery.Please note,he is prone to dislocation for this reason he require assistance to use a walker.
If you have any queries,please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours sincerely,
Ward Nurse
