Hospitals Transformation Programme continues with roadshow across communities

Following several exciting developments and milestones, The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital (SaTH) NHS Trust has announced more roadshow dates as part of the Hospitals Transformation Programme (HTP).

Subject to approval, the HTP plans will mean the population of Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and mid Wales will benefit from high quality, sustainable care and fewer delays for treatment for everyone, at two thriving hospital sites. The HTP plans will see the PRH site specialising in planned care, and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) site specialising in emergency care. In addition to this, 24/7 urgent care services will be available at both sites.

Clinicians and the programme team will attend each session to answer questions, explain the proposed clinically led model of care, and encourage members of the public to stay involved through the Trust’s regular focus groups.

Dates for the sessions are as follows:

• Wednesday 15 May – Age UK Office, Shrewsbury, 1pm – 4pm
• Thursday 23 May – Wellington Market, 10am – 2pm
• Thursday 13 June – Mayfair Community Centre, Church Stretton, 10am – 1pm

More dates and locations will be announced over the coming months.

Ed Rysdale, Emergency Medicine Consultant and HTP Clinical Lead, said: “It is vital that our communities hear first-hand from our clinicians, who have designed and led this programme. We will be continuing this roadshow across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, and mid Wales as we progress our plans to improve patient care and experiences at both of our hospitals.

“We are committed to continuing to work closely with our local communities, patients, and colleagues every step of this journey.”
