Featured case studies
Enhancing the Patient Experience at East Lothian Community Hospital
Thanks to the generous support of The Blythe Family Trust, we are delighted to be funding several key projects designed to significantly enhance the experience of patients and their families, with a particular focus on those in our inpatient wards who require more specialist and long-term care.
Supporting a Dedicated Office Space for Oncology Registrar Doctors
We were delighted to support the creation of a dedicated office space registrar doctors in the Oncology department at the Western General Hospital, Edinburgh to help improve team dynamics, collaboration, morale and overall wellbeing.
Reducing the Environmental Impact of Respiratory Care
Respiratory disease is very common, but the treatment often increases carbon emissions, exacerbating respiratory conditions. Thanks to funding from our Climate Challenge Grants, NHS Lothian staff are reducing waste, and carbon emissions.
Adventures That Make a Difference
We are delighted to support staff as they organise outings and activities that make a difference for patients receiving care for mental health.
