Why punish a hospital with a proven record?
This coupled with the fact that a CT scanner has been lying idle for four years, and that the promised radiographer has still not been appointed, does not inspire confidence in the Government’s ability to deliver for the hospital and its patients.
This is a cheap hospital to run and its patients have the shortest staying times. A&E queues are miniscule by comparison with other hospitals. Most referrals come from GPs practising in the area.
