Treliske hospital

Mum is still fighting - she has an iron will. Unfortunately it is not doing her any favours at the moment. My brother and I are visiting constantly.

I contacted the Chief Executive of Treliske to ask him to make sure the notices at the entrance to the hospital were more clearly displayed. This is to get everyone to use the hand gel when they enter the hospital. It's really important for those vulnerable patients who could pick up an infection. I think they should put large notices on the floor to say 'STOP clean your hands, NOW'. I will keep pressing them on this.

I am also concerned about the £1.70 for 2 hours parking charges. Why can't they also have a 30minute break for 60p. This would allow family to just pop in to see their relatives on a more frequent basis. The car park was supposed to be changed to a pay on exit system this October but this does not seem to have happened.
