THE NHS receives some terrible press, but I am pleased to report that a small part of is alive and well in Poole Hospital.

I had occasion to take my wife there on Thursday evening, July 25.

The staff on duty at the time, in particular the practice nurse, were extremely professional, friendly and helpful. Our sincere thanks to them all.
