A Picture for Health

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

'I remember staggering down long, dark, empty corridors. Very impersonal, very alienating. The nurse was there but she didn't help me.'
Many old hospitals are dreary, dilapidated places, but the size and clinical brightness of new ones are equally off-putting. In conversation with patients, doctors and nurses, Richard Cork looks at recent developments to enliven hospitals with pictures and attractive decoration, and considers the way their appearance affects the spirits and well-being of those who use them.
