One of things I'm most proud of since I became an MP was getting the funding over the line for the new A&E department at Manor Hospital. But there is so much more than that to this project, so it was great to meet the new Chief Exec, David Loughton to visit the site and discuss the Acute Medical Unit which will also be contained in the new building.
The £40m development will significantly improve emergency care, patient experience, and the working environment for staff. As well as the A&E Department, it will include an Urgent Treatment Centre, Paediatric Assessment Unit, and Digital X-Ray Rooms.
After the years of planning and finally getting the funding over the line, I am proud of the fantastic progress that is continuing to be made.

I will keep you posted as the development progresses!
