Programming
purpose and philosophy
We
broadcast a range of high-quality radio programmes to
Birmingham’s patients and others in the City’s health
community. Our programmes are aimed at making a patient’s stay
in hospital a more comfortable and less stressful experience than
it would otherwise be.
We are patient
centred and we focus on the music that patients want to hear and
the information that patients need to know about.
Programme Development
Programming
is continuing to develop in the early years of the 21st century,
and is becoming increasingly ambitious. Our new automated
programming system, Myriad P2, enables us to maintain our 24-hour
programme schedule, begun in 1994 and major improvements in radio
reception facilities continue to be rolled out across the
hospitals we serve.
Currently we are upgrading our Broadcast
System that serves the Queen Elizabeth, Selly Oak and
Womens Hospitals
About
our Information Programmes
Central to the
Network’s programming are the information, and sport programmes,
as well as live concerts, which bring the life of Birmingham into
the hospitals. The Network will not avoid discussing those awkward
issues which affect our everyday life. The Network uses the major
radio news agencies to provide us with up-to-the-minute news and
current features.
Serving
our Community’s Needs
Community
care announcements produced by the Network continue to promote
services for patients like the local ‘Ring and Ride’ service
and Department of Work and Pensions benefits. Tips for survival in
hospital are often mixed with news and information about our local
hospitals. The Network does not avoid informing patients about
relevant and important health issues which affect them.
BHBN Hospital Radio
NEWS
When
our new 24 hour programme schedule is launched BHBN Hospital Radio
will broadcast National and International news on the hour every
hour, twenty four hours a day, three hundred and sixty five days a
year.
We have a dedicated satellite system on which we receive the
service from Independent Radio News (IRN).
As well as the news bulletins, we are provided with news
and sports feeds, interviews and programme packages.
We also receive
internet web based services from IRN that are also used in our
Sports and Magazine Programmes.
