Rebecca Margey, who is now 27, features in The Hospital: Life on the Line, which follows dedicated staff at Scotland’s ‘heart hospital’, the Golden Jubilee.The Clydebank NHS hospital carries out around 1400 cardiac surgery procedures per year. In 2022/23, it completed 40 heart transplants, the most in the UK.
In the programme, she has come in to the Golden Jubilee Hospital to have the batteries in her pacemaker changed. The team have battled to repair his failing heart, but the only thing that will save him is a heart transplant and time is running out.“Every minute feels like a lifetime,” says Shabana.
