Jean Wormwell is from Bridlington and she's angry about the closure of a ward for elderly patients at the town's hospital.
Quote MessageThe York Trust said Bridlington Hospital was a jewel in the crown... so why are they decreasing our services there instead of increasing them. If they are closing a ward at this time of year... what about winter pressures? I think it's an awful time to close a ward."
Image source, GoogleYork Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust confirmed that the Waters Ward - which is an 11-bed ward for elderly patients - will be temporarily closed due to "recruitment pressures."
They say the ward's often not used to its full capacity and the staff are needed on other wards where there is greater demand.
But that's not gone down too well with local residents who believe this is one step closer to the hospital being closed for good.
