Mop cupboards no place to treat patients - Lamb

2.21.45pm GMT Tue 9th Mar 2010

Commenting on today's Nursing Times survey which revealed nurses are being asked to treat patients in mop cupboards, Liberal Democrat Shadow Health Secretary & North Norfolk MP, Norman Lamb said:

"It is absolutely unacceptable that patient care is being compromised in this way.

"Labour's failure to put patient care above its obsession with targets has meant that nurses are being forced to treat people in completely inappropriate places.

"Labour seems to have lost sight of the basic importance of dignity and care.

"A mop cupboard is no place to treat a patient."
