All ship shape on D2 Ward HAVING just read the letter from Thomas Owen regarding Royal Bolton Hospital, and what he says about D2 Ward, I feel I must comment.

I totally disagree with what he says. My wife has just come out of D2 ward after nearly three weeks, and she says that cleaners came in every day, early morning, beds moved, and according to my wife they were very thorough in cleaning every area.

I spoke to many patients and visitors, I visited twice a day and found everything 'ship shape'.
