It was my last ever shift on the ward last night, and today Gordon Brown visited the and i am pretty furious what was wrong? they spent hours titivating the place and they paid extra staff double time for the two hours he was likely to visit to make the numbers look good the ordinary day staff never got any extra pay.
really wish id been there would have loved to given him some home truths!!!! >:(

Can't  you email him. Perhaps he needs to know. Are you moving on to pastures new.

How aggravating that they did that, but I think its common practice  >:(

I remember many years back when Prince Charles came to my college and they painted all of the walls of the corriders to which he would be led down and completely left the rest of the building  >:(

yes but only within the same hospital so would be a shotgun to my career to say anything and got many more years to work there yet. the reason the ward was picked was because we have been one of the pioneers for the thrombolysis treatment of stroke but even so the staff on that and all the other wards in the hospital work extremely hard how is he gonna understand that the rest of the time we are understaffed and under equipped!!!

Ah ha, the RD&E???
Debster this is one of many reason I left the NHS!! Sorry you have more years to do.

Hi nippie do you know the r d and e where do you live?

debster, when somebody like gordon broon visits anywhere the place is filled with like-minded knacker scratchers.

You would not have been allowed within striking distance of his 'entourage'.  Especially if you had the effrontery to disagree with him and his 'policies'.

After the disastrous local elections on May 1st, broon has pledged to 'listen and learn'

One can live in hopes, or, as we used to say die in despair.

I worked with a bloke who was in the marines. He said when prince Charles visited their base one autumn all the leaves got hoovered off the trees to make sure of no mess.
   Did Brown get out of there without MRSA? No offence meant but RD&E has a bit of a rep for that I'm told.

Know what you mean.
About 4 years ago we had the Dutches of York come to see a new community centre that houses a community theatre in it.
Management had everyone in the area just concentrating on cleaning the route she was coming in by.
The rest of the area was left dirty for the day.

Gordon Brown visited your ward? It's a psychiatric hospital I assume. How did you let him escape  ??

good grief...................another lot of blinkered folks who cant or WONT see reality.............Gordon Brown is the very best hope,all of us have for fairness and justice

But they only see it as a photo-opportunity. We had a cabinet minister though our school a couple of decades back - can't remember her name, but they change so often that you don't need to - and she just stamped across and out again as if we didn't exist. Politicans don't live in the real world, just the one they've invented for themselves.

Debster I do sympathise and understand your frustrations but ....
