It was only a '˜blip'
FURTHER to the letter from C Rookyard in last week's letters '“ he was referring to my letter regarding the aftercare I received in Middleton Ward, St Richard's Hospital, Chichester, after a hip operation.
I have always supported the hospital and the NHS and in my work helping elderly people found many of them saying how well they had been treated. Therefore I was very surprised at the cavalier fashion in which I was treated.
As I said, this took place over a weekend when no doubt the ward was staffed by agency staff.
