"Outstanding Care"

I recently had a Holep procedure in the Ansty ward of Princess Royal hospital in Haywards Heath. I must say that the level of care and attention was most impressive. All staff involved with my stay were extraordinarily kind and concerned with how I felt and was progressing. They were diligent, energetic and, in addition, a good many added to that a welcome sense of humour. Indeed I marvel at how they were able to sustain their pace of work. Working at such pace for such long periods of time takes not only strong reserves of energy but also, and perhaps most significantly, great reserves of commitment. No wonder many view the profession of nursing more as a calling than simply a profession or career. They certainly deserve to be better rewarded for their compassion than they presently are. If compassion is important in life, which I believe it is, then this is a profession which should be looked up to. The service those within it provide is invaluable. It should be endowed with all of the resources essential to its carrying out its mission successfully. Rather than denied them.
