How many Mumsnetters work in hospitals as nurses or doctors (or meet hospital in-patients in one way or another)?

We've been asked if we could do a survey amongst hospital staff who are parents - and before we can commit we need to know roughly how many Mumsnetters work in hospitals and come into regular contact with in-patients (ie not admin staff).

So if you are a hospital doctor/nurse or regularly come into contact with in-patients, please let us know and if you don't mind saying what you do that would be even more helpful (but don't feel to have to).

Thanks

MNHQ

I'm a clinical scientist but don't actually see patients....just detached bits of them in the lab .......but do have input into their treatment and management.

You can be "admin" and still come into contact with in patients.

I'm not clinical, I'm a bed manager and work on an in patient unit. Do I count?

Need at least 50 before we can say we can do survey... so keep it up you medical folks...

I'm a medical secretary (PA to a consultant psychiatrist). I have to go on the ward rounds and so come into contact with in-patients.
