HC Deb 09 March 1970 vol 797 c222W
Commander Pursey

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, since the Hornsea Children's Convalescent Hospital was closed to patients, arrangements have been made, and at what hospitals, for the matron, deputy matron and sister to receive the training in children care and pediatric nursing necessary before being appointed to a children's hospital.

Mr. Crossman

The matron is on sick leave and the sister is taking accumulated annual leave. There is no deputy matron.
