EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the operating theatre at the Elise Hospital within the Quarriers Orphan Homes of Scotland site, located in Bridge of Weir, Renfrewshire, around 1912. The Elise Hospital was a vital part of the Quarriers Homes complex, which provided care and support for children in need. The operating theatre, filled with an air of quiet concentration, is a testament to the advanced medical care available to the children during that era. The sterile environment, with its white-tiled walls and gleaming surgical instruments, would have been a stark contrast to the everyday living conditions of the children. The image also reveals the dedicated team of medical professionals, dressed in their surgical attire, who would have worked tirelessly to ensure the health and wellbeing of the children in their care. The Quarriers Orphan Homes of Scotland, established in 1873, were renowned for their commitment to children's welfare. They offered a safe and nurturing environment for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The Elise Hospital was just one of the many facilities on the expansive site, which also included schools, farms, and workshops. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the compassionate care and medical advancements that were provided to the children at the Quarriers Homes over a century ago.
