The Western Isles Hospital ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Ospadal nan Eilean Siar)) is a rural general hospital in Stornoway on Lewis in the Western Isles of Scotland. It is run by NHS Western Isles, the local health board. The hospital has 212 beds across a range of specialities, including general medicine, geriatrics, paediatrics, general surgery, orthopaedics, obstetrics and gynaecology and psychiatry. Specialist services are provided by Consultants from Raigmore Hospital in Inverness on a rotational basis, and also by locum consultants. The majority of medical staff are junior doctors on rotation from Aberdeen, and the hospital is notable for not having any specialist registrars. The hospital employs nursing staff that are in the majority locals who trained on the Scottish mainland and have returned to work on the island. A variety of allied health professionals are based at the hospital, including dieticians, pharmacists, physiotherapists, podiatrists and radiographers. The Western Isles Hospital also features the largest tiled roof in the world. 〔Angus Corbett (1984)〕 Within the hospital there is a learning centre and purpose-built facilities for clinical skills training.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Western Isles Campus )〕 ==History== Costing £32 million, and taking two years to construct, the hospital was opened to patients in September 1992. It was given an official opening on 26 March 1993, by HRH Prince Charles, who was said to have been impressed with the new facilities following a tour. In 2012, the hospital marked the 20th anniversary of its opening. A modernisation plan for the hospital has included improvement work during 2013 and 2014 to a number of areas. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Western Isles Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
