Ross Memorial Hospital 150

The Ross Memorial Hospital in Dingwall is 150 years old this year!

With the help of Lydia from NHS Highland Clinical Illustration, we have created three posters to commemorate this impressive record. 

They are displayed in the waiting room of the Ross Memorial Hospital and in Dingwall Museum.

The first is on the general history of the hospital and it can be viewed here. documents/a4.ross-memorial-poster-1.flt-edit.jpg

The second displays the impressive history of maternity and how that has changed to rheumatology.  It can be viewed here. documents/ross-memorial-poster-2-maternity-and-rheumatology.pdf

The third poster tells the story of how a small town managed to finance a local hospital in the days before the NHS brought government funding. It can be viewed here. documents/ross-memorial-poster-3-keeping-it-running.pdf

BUT - much better to see the real thing in Dingwall Museum or at the Ross Memorial Hospital!  Pictures below.
