I COMPLETELY agree with Joan Cole’s letter (January 30) about the Royal Bournemouth Hospital and its nurses.

I was in Ward 25 twice (staff now moved to Ward 16) and even the lady who brought round the food trolley took great care to report patients who were not eating properly, and reporting this to the Ward Sister who visited those patients and checked they were alright.

A great hospital and we are lucky to have it.
