I WAS very interested to read the article "Staff at Alex are perfect" (Advertiser, April 24).
Having recently spent two weeks in Ward 18, I agree with comments made by Mary L Nolan.
All the medical staff I came in contact with were very professional and very caring despite pressure of work.
The consultants and doctors always found time to reassure you and there was always a smile and kind word from the nurses and care assistants which is most appreciated when receiving treatment in a strange environment.
I was also surprised by the standard of food. Bearing in mind every patient had several choices from the menu each meal and accepting that the kitchens were catering for hundreds of meals each day, I found no reason at all to join the band of NHS bashers.
I would just like to say thank you to all the staff at the Alex.
