5 July 2008 marks the 60th Anniversary of the NHS.
Working with the Scottish Government, Whitespace have just finished a website celebrating 60 years of progress and leadership in the field of medicine and healthcare in the NHS.
This website takes you on a historic journey showing how the NHS in Scotland has developed over the years. Take a trip through time to see how it has touched the lives of each and every one of us.
Discover the historical and sometimes bizarre NHS and medical facts from the past, for example, ‘burying three-quart jugs of a patient’s urine was once regarded as a cure for kidney disease’. Thank goodness for modern medicine.
