The Lister Hospital

DAISY Award winner Henry Lolome's inspiring story! 🏆 From Ghana to The Lister Hospital, Senior Staff Nurse Henry Lolome's passion for healthcare started when a caring nurse looked after him as a teen. That experience sparked a lifelong dedication to helping others. After completing his nursing degree in Ghana and working there until 2022, Henry brought his talents to the UK, first at Princess Grace Hospital before finding his home with us at The Lister. His achievements include designing our EDI logo and earning bronze in the HCA Healthcare UK-wide environmental sustainability awards! "I love it here. My manager Nellie has been incredibly supportive and played a huge role in my DAISY Award win. She always encouraged me to make patients feel as comfortable as possible". Henry's secret? It's in the details! From his warm smile to thoughtful gestures like relieving them of their nervousness and giving them much attention - he goes above and beyond. "Healthcare isn't always a positive experience," Henry reflects. "You don't always get the outcome you want, so making patients feel as good as possible is crucial - you never know what challenges they're facing." His winning philosophy? "Whatever I'm doing, I always try to do my best and do things the right way." Congratulations, Henry! With dedicated professionals like you, The Lister Hospital continues to provide exceptional patient care. #HealthcareHeroes #DaisyAward #NursingExcellence #PatientCare #HCAHealthcare #NursingLife #Healthcare #CaringForOthers #NursingAwards #HealthcareProfessionals #NursingCommunity #MedicalCare #HospitalLife #NursesOfInstagram

At 23 weeks pregnant, Lina's world turned upside down. What seemed like a blocked milk duct revealed something much more serious—a breast cancer diagnosis that would test her strength in ways she never imagined. With no family history of breast cancer, Lina's intuition told her something wasn't right. Within days, she was referred to Consultant Breast Surgeon Ms Nicola Roche at The Lister Hospital. A quick ultrasound and biopsy confirmed her fears: an oestrogen-positive, progesterone-positive breast cancer. Balancing cancer treatment with pregnancy required an incredible multidisciplinary team. Chemotherapy was carefully planned around her pregnancy, with Lina's baby Evan safely delivered in January 2022. After giving birth, she underwent further scans, surgeries, and treatments—all while caring for her three young children. “They literally saved my life – and now I can concentrate on being Mum again.” Lina says. Today, she's cancer-free and enjoying motherhood with her three children. Her powerful advice: "Check your breasts. Especially during pregnancy when the body is changing. Anything that raises your suspicions should be investigated." This story is a testament to the power of early detection, and medical excellence.

This International Men's Day we wanted to highlight our Men’s health checks for south west London Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing is a quick and simple blood test, that can help to monitor prostate health. Many things can cause an elevated PSA level, but it can also be an indication of prostate cancer, so if a patient has a higher than usual PSA result this can be investigated at The Lister Hospital team. Professor Rakesh Heer, Consultant Urologist says " I would recommend men over the age of 50 have an annual PSA blood test. A black man’s risk of developing prostate cancer is higher and I'd recommend PSA testing from the age of 45. Likewise, if there’s a family history of prostate cancer I would recommend regular PSA testing from the age of 45, and if there’s a family history of breast cancer, regular PSA testing from 45 onwards. This is because some prostate cancers can be linked to BRCA gene mutations, which cause some breast cancers. This simple blood test can provide us with valuable indications that may require further investigation. A raised PSA level doesn't mean prostate cancer, but it can be a warning sign, it can help us to catch prostate cancer in its earliest stages, when it's most treatable." At The Lister Hospital, we offer fast access to comprehensive assessments for men with raised PSA levels, this includes rapid MRI assessments and targeted biopsies when required. #InternationalMensDay #MensHealth #IMD2024
