Description: | This photo was set up to show off the new Industrial Health Centre at the Chiswick Works. London Transport was proud of its programmes of staff care.
The 31-acre Chiswick site underwent a major redevelopment after the Second World War. It would eventually include workshops, laboratories and test areas, as well as a large canteen. The work's surgery was intended to provide on-site care for any accidents that might happen.
The picture, taken in January 1948, shows a gleaming new area with up-to-date medical equipment. One nurse is attending to a hand injury. In the background, a second nurse is helping a woman dressed in canteen overalls. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Public Services Work | Temporal: | Jan 1948 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
