In case it helps.
My grandparents lived in Hull, East Riding, Yorkshire and as a child my grandmother told me that when her husband was injured she travelled down to London to visit him in the hospital down there. The Almoner arranged everything, even to organising the lodging house just around the corner from the hospital. Unfortunately I can't recall how long she stayed, whether it was one week or longer. At the time they had one young child and I wish I'd asked if she went too.
I now know he was in the RAMC which was the Northumbrian Army and he trained in Newcastle. His army record wasn't burnt so I know he was gassed in April 1916 and was treated in "1st London General Hospital".
