New hospital offers privacy
A £43.6 million hospital to be built in Edinburgh will offer private rooms for every patient.
The Royal Victoria Building on the Western General Hospital site will specialise in elderly care, dermatology and rheumatology when it is completed in 2012.
Funding has been approved by the Scottish Government.
Jackie Sansbury, director of strategic planning and modernisation at NHS Lothian, said: "We are delighted that the final stage of planning has now been completed and we can start building this state-of-the-art facility."
