Sister in charge of meals. Dorothy Linter, who qualified in 1963, remembers:
And then lunchtimes on Garrod Ward, the ward was so quiet then, I can remember the phones didn't ring very much and the conversation was all muted, you didn't shout at the end of the ward to speak to anybody, you went up to them. Everything was carried on a tray; if anybody wanted a cup of tea or an extra glass of water you did it in the kitchen and then you took it on a tray to the patient. Everybody seemed to go to lunch except the nurse that was going off at 1.30pm, so you were left with Sister in the kitchen. She would dish out the individual meals for each patient. She knew each patient and their requirements and so you would stand with your tray ready at the serving trolley that had come up from the kitchens, and take your plate and go to the patient and make sure that they were able to sit up and eat it.
