As l write this there is only 3 people available to look after the patients on Runfold ward, Farnham Hospital, Surrey. The 2 nurses are dealing with a patient who has had a stroke and 1 poor person, a carer, trying to do everything else. They have to take patients to the toilet and can't answer all the red call bells. This is not acceptable these people have just been passed on by the hospital for rehabilitation and they are not fit to go home. More funding is required to give the patients the care and dignity they deserve. More staff during the night time is required now.
