This evening (and also last Monday evening) James and I have watched a couple of episodes of a documentary series called "Scotland's Superhospital" about the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow. This is Glasgow's newest hospital (it opened two years ago), the result of the merger of several other hospitals and built on the site of the old Southern General. Each episode looks at the experiences of several patients in different areas of this huge hospital. Despite its size and all the brand new equipment like the automated guided vehicles to transport supplies, the staff seem to have maintained the personal relationships with their patients. I have found both programmes to be very moving and I think that the staff there are doing a wonderful job. That includes my friend Heather. I won't go into any details about her job, however l am so impressed by the amazing and life-changing work that she does.
