A shortage of staff at Scotland’s flagship hospital 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 facilities in place.
HIS made an unannounced visit to Glasgow’s Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in March and found 33 wards scored a “red” staffing risk.
