Is this the safest car park in Britain?

SECURE: Hathersage Road car park.

THIEVES with an eye on vehicles in a new hospital car park should be warned - it has a staggering 127 CCTV cameras and 33 attendants.

Cameras monitor almost every inch of the city centre multi-storey and together will digitally record more than one million hours of images a year.

With one camera for every 12 cars, experts believe it has

 

More cameras than any other car park in Britain.

It opened a month ahead of schedule on the corner of Upper Brook Street and Hathersage Road and serves Manchester Royal Infirmary, St Mary's Hospital and Manchester Royal Eye Hospital.

It was built through a private finance initiative and has 1,616 parking spaces for patients, staff and visitors over seven levels with ground-floor parking for people with mobility problems.

Coverage

The building also has 24-hour security guards who monitor the cameras.

Images from the cameras are relayed back to both the security guards' room at the car park and Central Manchester NHS Trust's main CCTV room, which is based in the MRI and also monitors other cameras covering the 44-acre hospital site.

Dave White, car parks operations manager, said: "There were a couple of alcoves that the cameras couldn't reach, so we boarded them up and turned them into storage cupboards.

"The rest of the car park is covered. There are cameras as you go in and out, on every level and in the lifts. I worked in the airport for 16 years and we have more cameras here than they had at the airport.

"We also have 33 car park attendants and they patrol as well as watch the cameras. I think all this sends out a clear message to criminals not to bother.

"Hospitals are used by vulnerable people and a visit can be an upsetting experience, so it's important to have good security."

FAMOUS CAR PARKS

The famous multi storey in Gateshead, as used in the 1971 film Get Carter. Originally, was designed to have a restaurant at the top.

BREAKING NEWS

January 2010

 

21/01/2010

Hi,  In the last two months we’ve had lots of screenings all over the country. The most recent was at the Brewery Arts Centre in Kendal where myself and the lovely Richard D Wilson did a Q and A after the film.

 

Two nights earlier Stehen Swift and myself along with an appreciative audience were at FACT in Liverpool.

 

I’d just like to thanks all the people that got behind the film and particularly David Wilkinson and Joanna Payne who between them organised a Facebool group, sent out thousands of emails, press kits, and much more.

 

Also, like to thank Alan Keegan who was always on hand for publicity and interviews.

 

Mr Ken Horne flew in for the premiere, thanks Ken.

 

And there were many other who did their bit. Like Ben Gordon, Sofie Fowler, Steve Balshawe, David Faragher, Ian Patterson, Brian Green. Oh and my family.

 

The truth is we could do no more in terms of publicity, in fact we actually had to turn some down because we couldn’t fit it all in.

 

We’ve had lots of press, radio, TV and web coverage, so we made our mark.

 

To everyone who helped out.

 

Thanks.

 

Bill

 

 

 

There will be more Car Park activity soon so keep coming back, but for the next couple of weeks it’s bacck to normality That was the hardest I worked in my life, ever. I’m still coming down from it.

Apology On Locked Up Patient

Mental health bosses have apologised for failures in finding a hospital bed for a patient who instead spent three days locked in a police cell.

 

From Metro Thursday 11 May

By Suzie Austin

 

  

Mental patients help choose staff

 

The patients had a say in the hiring of staff

A top security hospital has confirmed that patients have become involved in the selection of staff.

Rampton Hospital in Nottinghamshire, which has high-profile patients, such as caretaker Ian Huntley - accused of killing Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman - says the process has been a success.

"Giving patients some input into the selection of social work staff is common in community psychiatric services, but this is the first time it has been used at Rampton," hospital spokeswoman Julie Grant said.

The interviews for six social work positions at the hospital included input from four patients and two carers.

Final say

Their panel reported to a professional appointment panel, which then made the final decisions on who to hire.

The head of social work at the hospital, James Pam, said their involvement proved such a success that the hospital is going to use the same system again.
