Work at Middlewood

[Guest ann spring]

Hi i am new to this site i have found it very intersting and has brought back many memories.

Ii worked at Middllwood as a pre-nursing cadet in 1969. We worked in many different departments and wards. I worked in the path lab even went into the morg to look at my fisrt body.

Later in 1972 i started my pupil nures training, my time spent there was happy. The first ward i started on was ward 13 the charge nurse was Dave Woodcock.

I have a photo of Walter and myself it was good to here that he is keeping well.

Don't know if there is anyone out there who remembers me and would like to catch up or share a few old times
