Nurse goes above and beyond for vegan hospital patient.

a green hospital tray with a slice of bread on it and a butter packet on that, and a large bowl of what looks to be coffee.

“My wife is on a long term hospital stay and very fed up as you’d imagine. She’s vegan so food options sometimes limited.

One night there was an issue (chef unwell I think) so that the only available food was very boring indeed, just some rice and boiled veg. One of the nurses rushed to the kitchens and managed to smuggle my partner a number of vegan desserts to brighten up mealtime.

She didn’t have to do this at all and the staff are so busy but she made time to do it.”
