Protect the PRH says David Wright MP

We don't need to save the PRH because it is not going anywhere – but I have always said that I will not accept any proposals which are detrimental to the health of Telford people.

We must get the best possible deal for Telford and I urge local people to have their say and campaign to Protect the PRH by clicking here and letting me know their views.

 

You may have read in the press or heard on the radio that there is a major consultation starting on the future configuration of services at the Princess Royal Hospital in Telford and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.

I want you to have your say and I hope you will encourage everyone to have theirs too. It is vital that services at the two sites reflect the needs of the whole health economy.

I have received a personal assurance from the Chief Executive of the hospital - backed by the Trust Board - that both hospitals will retain their consultant-led A&E units.

I am pleased that we now have some facts instead of speculation.

I have already held a number of drop in sessions for constituents to talk about the hospital issues and I will be holding more during the full consultation period. Details can be found by clicking here.
