Medical workers meet royal
Monday 9th March 2009
A number of people with UK medical jobs recently met a member of the royal family.
Earlier this month, Princess Anne visited Chesterfield Royal Hospital's new children's unit, the Derbyshire Times reports.
She toured the facility, at one point being taken through the therapy bounce room and mental health areas.
The unit, which cost £5 million, was opened in November last year and houses a range of services, including physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy.
In a message to the princess, Richard Gregory, hospital chairman, said: "This visit will always be very special because this centre is a significant development and we couldn't think of a nicer way for us to remember this day by having you here."
The Chesterfield Royal Hospital has a total of 550 beds and a budget of £160 million.
In addition, the facility employs more than 3,000 workers in a variety of roles.
