This morning I had a Pre-op in the Cardiothoracic Centre prior to a procedure scheduled for the 3rd September. Although the Pre-op did take a bit longer than expected, the care was excellent, I had all of my questions answered and the waiting room was adequate. As I left the CTC, there were staff and and patients smoking at the back of the "old building". As I walked past the Renal Unit on my way home there were staff smoking. Just past this point is a big sign saying that the whole hospital site is no smoking. I know you can't really enforce the no smoking policy on the patients, but surely you can on staff? It is a hospital after all!!
"Excellent Pre-op, but disappointed by smokers"
