Quite right, Royboy.

It works both ways.

I really do think that wards should be same sex only but these days it seems you've just got to be glad of a bed, to get out without contracting MRSA and beggar the rest. :(

My hubby's going into Burnley hospital next week for a knee op, I don't know whether the ward will be same sex or not but I'll just be glad to have him back in one piece.

Maybe not when they start getting free housing and don't have to go to work ;)

Anyway all maternity wards are mixed, all the boys are on the same ward as their mum's :p

Was at my daughters birth and it was a miricle to behold. Well that and the doc was lucky he didnt get a punch in the gob from the well stoned new mum. :dummy2::eek::dummy:

Any mixed ward would if it had to be used by a certain group would be hit on the head. One rule for one lot another for another lot etc etc etc. Can see the point of it though if say there was a shortage of beds in say male recovery and available in female recovery. It would be better than being stuck in a corridor.

I tried to attend the birth of both my Daughters but there was a big obstacle in those days, a 16 stone Midwife to be precise:D

Re: Mixed hospital wards
 
This midwife was she in the way deliberately or just being an obstacle by accident?

I was with my mum when she had my little brother. People find that strange when I tell them but they don't understand how truly magical it is. It was a brilliant night :)
