  <dc:title>Medical Committee: letter of complaint from House Physicians</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Copy of letter from J [S] Collier and Edwin Bramwell, House Physicians, to the Medical Committee, bringing to their attention 'certain serious difficulties constantly arising out of [their] work . . . with the view that some alteration may be made in the working of the Hospital to obviate the occurrences of these difficulties'. The letter goes on to list concerns about massage, electrical treatment and treatment of bladders on tbe male side of the Hospital, because of insuficient attendants; the insuffficiency of linen in the male wards;
the insufficiency of patients' diets, especially in Princess Christian ward, which resulted  in patients hoarding food in their lockers, against Hospital rules; and the fact that the the food supplied to the House Physicians was of 'the worst quality and frequently unfit for human food'.
