COSSHAM HOSPITAL MINOR INJURIES UNIT

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the first anniversary of the reopening of Cossham Hospital; further welcomes the £19 million refurbishment that includes a renal dialysis unit, x-ray and scanning department, physiotherapy and outpatient appointments and Bristol's first free-standing midwife-led birth centre that has already delivered hundreds of babies; yet regrets that the minor injuries unit that was promised in the Bristol Health Services Plan and in the 2009 business plan has yet to be installed; and urges the NHS to complete the minor injuries unit at Cossham Hospital as soon as possible and honour its commitment to the local community.
