BRILLIANT nurses, paramedics and improved cleanliness were among the comments received about Sheffield's NHS services during a street survey carried out to mark the 60th anniversary of the NHS.
A total of 206 people from all walks of life were asked to comment on the best aspects of NHS services in Sheffield, and then to choose one thing that could be done to improve them.

When it came to potential improvements many comments reflected national concerns regarding waiting times; worries about MRSA; and a general feeling that there should be fewer managers and more staff on the wards.
