I would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff in Douglas ward who helped look after my mother during her stay. The staff were brilliant, the ward was lovely.
On that note I would like to express my disbelief and utter disgust at the NHS decision to close this ward. The NHS is crying out for beds so why continue to close wards and risk patient safety. I don't care what the reasons are but they are wrong. It's all money money money with the NHS, they don't seem to care about patient safety or welfare or the fact we have a growing and aging population and nowhere near enough beds to handle that.
I feel sorry for all the patients and staff in Douglas ward who again are all amazing.
"Brilliant staff, lovely ward."
