JUST recently, I was unfortunate enough to have an accident while working.

I fell off a ladder and landed on my heel, smashing it to pieces. I was taken to what felt like a hotel in Eastern Road, Brighton.

The beds were clean and comfortable, the nursing staff were great and the bedside service was brilliant. The food sent up from the kitchen was excellent.

I’d like to give my positive thanks to all the doctors, nurses and staff of the Royal Sussex County Hospital.

My first ever stay in a hospital was made a good one, and felt like staying in a five-star hotel.
