[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 115280"] Nurses don't spend years doing their training, ( three years for me) and they cannot be expected to know everything about all conditions and diseases. I am a psychiatric nurse and spent 12 weeks on general wards during my training. That does not make me an expert on a lot of subjects including diabetes. One day on food that you do not consider suitable is not going to make that much difference and as Romola says, be prepared and take some snacks that you consider suitable. If you had been on an Endo ward then you would have cause for concern but to date these don't exist. Someone, somewhere, is compiling these menus and they are not getting the flack, perhaps you could address your complaint in a letter? [/QUOTE]
