DESPITE public assurances to the contrary only last week, it has now been confirmed that the hospitals trust that serves the Mid and South East Essex region – including Basildon & Thurrock Hospital – has a problem with the supply of oxygen.
Thurrock Nub News raised the issue with the Trust last week but we were categorically assured that there was not a problem and received this emphatic response: “Mid and South NHS Foundation Trust are not running low or out of our oxygen supply.”
