More beds onboard than Auckland Hospital

"It appears we get the wounded first from the trenches but some of them will have had temporary aid - then they are admitted here to the receiving room - where possible they will there be undressed and washed and taken from there to Theatre or ward all depending on the condition of the patient."

"There is no doubt the doctors know how to organise all this work and they are working hard - now I am very glad to be on the ship. There are more beds here than in Auckland Hospital - looking at it like that I can understand what it means."
