My first job after qualifying as a nurse in 1990 was on Warrington ward at Torbay hospital.
Sister T as all her staff called her did have a bit of a reputation. Now I don't know how that was. She was always lovely to me, and the rest of the staff.
She was funny and kind. RIP Sister T x

My very first job after I qualified as a nurse was on Warrington ward Torbay hospital. Sister T had a bit of a reputation. I found out very soon her bark was far worse that her bite. She was a delight to work with, so lovely to her staff.
96, what a fantastic age
RIP You'll alway be Sister T to me x

A wonderful teacher with a great sense of humour.
Jean or Sister T prepared me well for all the areas of Torbay Hospital when I qualified. Sleep well… you deserve it 🌷🌷❌
