"Facilities for disabled patients and publicity ads"

About: Witterings Medical Centre

I have been caring for my husband who, post operatively has very limited mobility with no knee joint and his leg in a carbon fibre fixed brace. I am surprised given the number of other patients I have seen with mobility issues that they are required to walk a considerable distance through the surgery and have to use a lift to access treatment rooms when attending nurse appointments. Given that you openly publicise that stairs, not the lift, must be used in the event of fire or other emergency what are those who cannot negotiate stairs supposed to do in such circumstances? I appreciate there are limited facilities but ought it not to be possible to accommodate the needs of patients with mobility issues in downstairs treatment rooms?

Your publicity material has for months now in referring to the five a day portions of fruit and vegetables contained a basic spelling error demonstrating poor proof reading to the point of a failure even to use a spelkcheck facility - the vegetable is a PARSNIP and not a PARNIP.
