Pulse 60th Anniversary Edition

Welcome to NHS Lanarkshire’s special 60th anniversary edition of the Pulse.

We hope you enjoy browsing its pages.

The Pulse - Special 60th Anniversay Supplement

The 12 page diamond anniversary pull-out contains features and stories from NHS Lanarkshire employees past and present.

It looks at the reasons behind the formation of the NHS, some of the early problems it faced and its history since.

It also takes a look at how the NHS has evolved and changed in Lanarkshire over the last six decades as well as the history of many of our services in acute and primary sectors.

We also look to the future of the NHS in Lanarkshire and at how the service might develop over the next 60 years.

We also have the thoughts of many famous Lanarkshire sons and daughters who all have their own reasons to celebrate the 60th birthday of the NHS.

Not to be outdone are some of the recollections of NHS Lanarkshire staff and patients.

Finally, NHS Lanarkshire would like to thank all the staff – both past and present – who took the time and effort to contribute their memories, pictures and stories on the health service in Lanarkshire.

This publication – like the NHS itself – would be all the poorer without this level of consideration and commitment.
