Reply To: NHS parking charges

[karen]

I’m a nurse in the nhs and pay around £20 a month to park. We give our patient’s relatives a parking permit so it costs £7 a week/£1 per day (whichever works out cheaper for them) otherwise it is ridiculously expensive. I work in intensive care so I’m not sure if this is something we do because the patients are so sick and are more likely to be in hospital for a prolonged stay or if it is hospital wide. Patient’s relatives are normally very grateful though and it at least takes that financial worry away at a very stressful time.
