This print captures a moment in time at Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup, Kent, England during the 1960s. In the image, a dedicated nurse is seen wheeling a patient forward in his metal bed so that the daily Ward Maids can clean and polish the floors of the hospital ward. The scene is bustling with activity as the maids work diligently to maintain cleanliness and hygiene within the medical facility.
The historical significance of this photograph lies in its portrayal of the essential service provided by these unsung heroes - the hospital ward maids.
