Tayside Health Board Tayside NHS Board Ninewells Hospital & Medical School DUNDEE DD1 9SY Telephone Number 01382 660111 Fax Number 01382 425562 www.nhstayside.scot.nhs.uk Jack Rivett Date 20 October 2016 Your Ref Chairman BGK CC Our Ref LW/MA/ej Rivett Jack 1810 *via email* Enquiries to Lorna Wiggin Extension 40734 [email protected] Direct Line 01382 740734 Email [email protected] Dear Mr Rivett With regards to your email of 20 September 2016 where you raised a number of points concerning various issues at the Murray Royal Hospital site. 1. Murray Royal Football Pitch It is appreciated that this issue has been ongoing for some time, however, NHS Tayside are committed to working with partners to restore the football pitch to the condition previously experienced and prior to the drainage works being undertaken. At a recent meeting between senior NHS Tayside property staff and partner organisations, agreement was reached to work collaboratively to achieve this. A condition and improvement report from the grounds contractor is awaited and it is anticipated that work will commence shortly after that report has been considered. At the time of issue of this letter NHS Tayside await receipt of said report. 2. Murray Royal Traffic Plan I can confirm there is a current travel plan for Murray Royal Hospital and a review of this plan was recently undertaken by site support services staff. In addition, a number of proposals are being considered as part of space management plans to ensure the effective and efficient use of the site. NHS Tayside will continue to monitor and review travel and parking issues at the site. With regards to the relocation of the Birch Avenue Clinic, staff from the clinic moved into an area of the hospital that was identified in the plans as an occupied space but not utilised. 3. Sale of hospital land and surplus assets NHS Health Boards in Scotland are required to comply with the requirements of CEL 35 (2010): A Policy for Property and Asset Management in NHS Scotland. Compliance with this policy ensures NHS Tayside will optimise the utilisation of assets in terms of service benefits and financial return. To support the delivery of asset management, NHS Tayside will commission technical consultants when necessary and use the results of their investigations to inform the forward planning for surplus sites. We are unable to comment on the findings of the community technical experts and must take forward our recommendations on the basis of the report provided by Mott McDonald. Everyone has the best care experience possible Headquarters: Ninewells Hospital & Medical School, Dundee, DD1 9SY (for mail) DD2 1UB (for Sat Nav) Chairman, Professor John Connell FMedSci FRSE Chief Executive, Ms Lesley McLay Mr Jack Rivett - 2 - 20 October 2016 4. New Access to Moredun Ward and Walled Garden from Muirhall Road The response from Mr Ken Armstrong on 19 May 2016 remains relevant. There has been no attempt by NHS Tayside to deceive or act fraudulently in this matter. NHS Tayside maintains that a new access road is required and are discussing with partners the actions required to move this matter forward. An amended planning application is being considered with appropriate revisions and it is hoped this will be submitted in the near future. Ms Lorna Wiggin, Chief Operating Officer and Mr Mark Anderson, Head of Property would be happy to meet with you to discuss your concerns further. Yours sincerely Lesley McLay Chief Executive .

  • Mark Richards
    70 stories for #NHS70: Celebrating Mental Health Nursing’s Contribution in Scotland - #70mhnursingstories Name: Mark Richards Current Job: Director of Nursing and AHPs/Deputy CEO NHS Board Area/Trust: The State Hospitals Board for Scotland Your Story What was your journey in to mental health nursing? (700 words max) Growing up in Perth, I had no family history or connection to nursing, in fact, I was brought up in and around the family bike shop and had always thought that my working life would have had some connection to the bike trade. I also had a neighbour (Ian), who was a good friend of the family, and who was a Mental Health Nurse. I can remember as a wee boy during the school summer holidays being told to keep the noise down because Ian was sleeping and wondering what on earth he did staying up all night! And how could a man be a nurse? Perhaps some natural curiosity at an early age. Looking back at leaving school, I really had no idea on career choice as a 16 year old. I thought I would follow in my Dad’s footsteps (who was a tool maker to trade) and pursue a career that was focused on the mechanical side of things. I applied for an apprenticeship with the Royal Navy as an aeronautical engineer, focused on helicopter engines. Having been through the recruitment selection process, I was asked to apply back again the following year, which necessitated a complete rethink of what career options were in front of me. Cue a chance conversation with Ian, who spoke to me about a career in Mental Health Nursing.
