at Severalls the theatres are downstairs and the surgical ward is upstairs. they had lifts tho. apparently they used to take surgical cases from the general hospital just across the way but i don't know if it was designed with that in mind...

i think it means people who were dead when they were found and brought in by ambulance rather than people who died in the hospital. if i'm correct, west middx was a general hospital rather than mental health. feel free to set me straight...

jude - according to the british (snob) class system it's vulgar (or "non-u"for non-upper-class") to use words derived from french. so, lavatory or loo not toilet, napkin not serviette.
