"Smokers"

About: Queen Elizabeth Hospital (Gateshead)

Excellent hospital, amazing staff...however it is disgusting how many smokers you have to walk through to get into the main entrance of the hospital. Despite numerous signs there are security staff standing with patients outside of the main doors while they smoke. It has got to be time this hospital made it a no-smoking site its disgraceful in this day and age to have to walk through clouds of smoke to enter a hospital. Big let down QEH
