Visit to the BRI and the BRHSC

107 The Panel visited the BRI and the BRHSC on 22 July 1999, accompanied by members of the Inquiry staff. In particular, at the BRI they saw Wards 5A and 5B (the ICU), the Relatives' Room and the lift used to move children pre- and post- operatively. At the BRHSC, having walked up the hill from the BRI, they visited the Cardiac Catheter Unit, the Echo Room, Ward 36, the ICU, the Main Surgical Ward and the operating theatres, including that built in 1995 to allow open-heart surgery to be performed at the BRHSC.
