Retiral of registered nurse Cath Latto

Cath Latto, a nurse at the day surgery unit, has retired after 44 years service with the NHS.

Cath started her training in 1971 in Aberdeen and on completing her training, worked in geriatrics in Aberdeen.

In 1974, Cath joined NHS Tayside working in theatres until the day surgery unit opened in 1998.

Presenting Cath with her gifts, senior charge nurse Sandra Hulme, said “Cath has made an enormous contribution to the NHS over the last 40 years. She has trained many students and staff nurses in recovery and has been an invaluable asset to our team.

“Cath is such a character. She is well respected and admired by all her colleagues and dearly loved by her patients. The only thing she faltered at was learning Spanish – in her words “Adidas everyone!””
