HAVING recently spent two weeks in Ward 8 at Fairfield Hospital, I would like to publicly express my thanks to everyone, and I mean everyone, who worked on the ward.
They really are dedicated. It’s not work to them, but total dedication to helping their patients.
I have been an in-patient in various hospitals during the last 20 to 30 years and, although I have always received the utmost care, nowhere have I seen such details to even the most trivial task.
During those two weeks never once did I hear “it’s not my job”. Whatever wanted doing was dealt with by whoever was available, be it a senior sister or cleaner, and the attention to cleanliness was exceptional.
I hope I don’t have to go into hospital again, but, if I do, I hope it will be a similar experience to Ward 8.
Thanks again to all.
Mrs Marsden Tottington
