I remember Yardley Green hospital quite well.
I was a child patient for almost 18 months in Yardley Green Hospital, in ward G (side ward) during 1962/63. A few of the nurses I remember are Nurse Wright, Green, and staff nurse Donaghue. My doctor was a silver-haired Scotsman named Dr Ross. We had a teacher who would come to the ward for our schooling.
It was a 6-bed ward for children, adjoining the womens ward, but in the time I spent there I met and made friends with Noreena, Linda and May from the Aston area. Linda's parents had a pub some where off the Lichfield Road. Then there was Janet, Teresa and one or two others, some were only there for a short time, others for longer, like myself. I only wish I could remember their surnames.
If anyone recalls being in Yardley around this time, or know any of the ward staff, I would be interested in hearing from you.
