A shortage of staff at Scotland’s flagship hospital in Glasgow put it at “red risk” for patient safety, according to a damning report.
Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS) also discovered hygiene and PPE issues, long waits at A&E, and even flagged up a patient being cared for in a former storeroom without appropriate equipment in place.
HIS made an unannounced visit to Glasgow’s Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in March and found that 33 wards scored a “red” staffing risk, reports The Daily Record.
