Wednesday the 12th is International Nurses Day.

There was a big promotional spread in last weekend’s HB Today, with congratulatory adverts from DHB, Royston, EIT etc.

Here’s a surprise … none from Cranford!! Too busy terrorizing their nurses.

If you know a Cranford nurse, give her (him) a special hug today. They won’t be getting one from Presbyterian Support.

P.S. OK, hug any nurse!

P.P.S. Actually there was a Cranford advert in the weekend paper. It tried to explain — and apologise for — the transfer of inpatient palliative care to HB Hospital as of May 17.
