We would like to express our sincere thanks to the staff of the Royal Sussex County Hospital for looking after my father, who has spent some considerable time there.

We are particularly grateful to the nursing staff in the intensive care unit for their care and compassion, not only to my father but to the immediate family.

They always made time for us and answered our questions, no matter how busy they were. Their professionalism has been exemplary and although this letter is inadequate in terms of how much we owe them, it is a small token of our appreciation.
