THIS is a public thank you to all the nursing staff and helpers at Worcester Royal Infirmary.

I recently have had a knee replacement operation, and cannot praise them highly enough for the care and attention I received. The nursing staff, with infinite patience, good humour (under extreme pressure) and helping hands, were always present. The cleanliness of the hospital is to be praised. The meals were of a high standard.

We hear so much of the unpleasant side of hospital, that I thought it would be a change for experienced care to be praised.

Thank you.
