[Margaret Pilkington]

I was a ward manager.....but this was because I was Senior Sister on my unit.....and I can tell you John that at one time when a sister(even a junior one)requested something......they got it.
This was not the case by the time I left......and things have got much worse in the eleven years since I was at QPH.
Ward Sisters have much less influence than at any time in the past. I reckon I worked in the NHS at the very best time.
I was allowed to care for patients.
