Oak Park Hospital at the Sharp End
Posted: Sunday 16 August 2009 by Marc Bradshaw
The future of the proposed Oak Park Community Hospital for Havant and part of East Hants looks less secure as NHS Hampshire has decided at this late stage to undertake a financial review. The review called a rapid appraisal process will look at five key questions, all of these financial, in order to determine what to do next. The next board meeting of NHS Hampshire on 24th September will have the outcome of the review.
Susan Stocker, Liberal Democrat Group Leader, said "The services and beds agreed for the Oak Park Community Hospital must be provided locally. Residents have told us how these services impact on them and how much they are needed."
Borough Cllr. Faith Ponsonby said "Havant Liberal Democrats together with our Liberal Democrat Colleagues in East Hants are collecting signatures on a petition to present to the NHS Hampshire Board on 24th September."
