"Smoking!"

About: Arrowe Park Hospital

I unfortunately have to attend the Respitory Lab on frequent occasions. On Monday I was due my breathing test, when I arrived at the (Brand New Main Entrance) one door was locked, leaving the other as my means of entrance. Guess what I had to negotiate the smoking brigade outside this door. I have no problem if they wish to kill themselves or loose another limb, that's their choice. What I do object to is having to walk through their barage of filthy smoke, causing me to cough. Not the best patient care for someone who is about to have a Respitory Test! Disgusted
