Post by wini » Tue Jul 23, 2013 7:00 am

Are there records of hospitals and their patients, especially of deaths in hospitals?

Hi Wini,

I suppose it depends on which hospital and the time period. Why not Google the name of the hospital you're looking for and see what comes.

Here's the Glasgow Archives as an example http://www.archives.gla.ac.uk/gghb/coll ... pital.html

Good luck!

Regards,

Also worth noting, depending on the time period, that many hospital records have a closure period for 100years.

Dundee medical archives can be found here:
