"Wikipaedia for patient safety - Hope / Salford"

About: Salford Royal / Rheumatology

(as the patient),

At my last visit to Salford Royal / Hope Hospital, to see my specialist nurse in the Rheumatology Ward for my ongoing Rheumatoid Arthritis treatment....

I had a question regarding patient safety. I asked what was the limit of mixing certain drugs in combination with others to ensure I did not overdose in error....

to my horror, the nurse said to me they didn't know the answer to that. The nurse then said to me they'll check it for me right now and proceeded to check Google which brought up Wikipaedia and read out what was written there as my instructions.
