Kate spoke with nurses from UHCW
Kate hailed the vital role that nurses are playing in the vaccine rollout and spoke with Caroline Rudd and Judith Smith, two retired nurses who first met when they began their training in the late 1970s and have returned to the NHS to help with the vaccination programme in care homes.
The Duchess also heard a touching story from senior nurse Vasu Lingappa, who held the hand of a dying patient and played his favourite band Bon Jovi after his wife could not make it to his bedside.
Mr Lingappa, a critical care outreach practitioner, told Kate: A lot of people are dying and we normally have families surrounding them during the last hour, but we re not able to do that.
