I WAS appalled to read (Your Letters, Nov 16) about the closure of the children's medical emergency department at Fairfield Hospital, and the fact that there are only cubicles for children in the main A&E department.
Why do we have to put our children through this?
The children's medical emergency department was one of the few positive things I've seen come out of Bury Area Health Authority, whose medical services are generally less than adequate.
I beg all parents to call for change as the current situation is totally unacceptable.
VERY WORRIED PARENT
