Kirklandside is a community hospital in the village of Hurlford a few miles out of Kilmarnock, Scotland. It is managed by NHS Ayrshire and Arran.

History

The hospital was designed by James Scott Hay as an infectious diseases hospital and opened in 1910.[1] The original lay-out consisted of seven blocks set on a 22-acre (9-hectare) site.[2] When the hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948, it had 51 beds and was still classified as being for the care of infectious diseases.[3]

Services

The hospital provides consultant-led services for frail elderly patients. It has 25 long-stay beds for inpatient care and a day hospital which provides assessment and rehabilitation facilities.[4] The kitchen at the hospital has been closed and food for patients is now brought in from outside.[5]

gollark: > The "Write Pattern" command is new for DDR5; this is identical to a write command, but no data is transmitted. Instead, the range is filled with copies of a 1-byte mode register (which defaults to all-zero). Although this takes the same amount of time as a normal write, not driving the data lines saves energy. Also, writes to multiple banks may be interleaved more closely.
