My husband spent a weekend recently in Donald Hall ward at the Royal Sussex County Hospital. He was extremely impressed by the cleanliness of the ward, even though it is very old and in line for renovation. The nurses wore different aprons and gloves to attend to each patient.

He says the nurses are worth £2,000 per week and the Prime Minister should sort this out now.
