Following my road construction announcements yesterday, I made another unannounced, surprise visit. This time I went to the Children’s and Adolescent Unit at John Umstead Hospital in Butner.
I wanted to see the facility for myself. During a 75-minute visit I talked with hospital administrators, the medical and nursing staff, and many of the children. I have pledged to be a hands-on governor and I’m committed to working with Sec. Cansler to ensure that all of our patients in mental health facilities are getting proper care in suitable and safe conditions.
