We received this lovely feedback from someone who told us about their recent experience with our staff at the BGH 🥰 Read more patient stories or share your experience with us here: 👉 careopinion.org.uk/services/sb9 #CareOpinion #PatientStory
This Sunday marks the 72nd Anniversary of the National Health Service. Check back here on Sunday to see what our staff are thankful for as an NHS staff member, particularly during the pandemic.#nhsscot72
The Emergency Department (ED) at the BGH is currently very busy. We are attending to patients as soon as we can however you may have to wait longer than you would normally expect; and patients will be treated according to clinical priority. Please follow the guidance below.

With immediate effect visiting times in all of our hospitals are restricted to between 3-4pm and 7-8pm. Only visit if essential. Maximum 2 visitors per patient. No visitors under the age of 12. For visits to critical care & end of life care please discuss with Senior Nurse.
Unfortunately we have had instances of this in the Borders. Please do not remove any hand sanitisation equipment or products from our facilities, we need them to keep our staff and patients safe.

We are fortunate to have almost 300 people volunteering in 40 different volunteer roles within NHS Borders. Here is Stella one of volunteers in the Chaplaincy Centre / Ward 14 - Department of Medicine for the Elderly with a bit about what she does and why #VolunteersWeekScot
Continuing our celebration of #VolunteersWeekScot 🎉 we’re sharing the story of mealtime volunteers, who are placed on the care of the elderly wards in @NHSBorders. Volunteers add value to NHS Boards in so many ways: youtu.be/cHPrCyOy-P8
Members of our nursing teams from Ward 7, 9 and 16 have spent today on a study day (organised by our Critical Care Outreach nurses) upskilling their current knowledge and skills #AlwaysLearning #PatientSafety #ExcellenceInCare
Well done Joanne. The Volunteers are such a valued part of NHS Borders.
