Put Doctors, NHS Dentists and a Diabetic Nurse in South Lynn Health Hub Now
Put GP's, NHS Dentists and a Diabetic Nurse in South Lynn Health Hub Now
Why is this important?
We all campaigned for a new doctors surgery in the south of King's Lynn, after the town centre surgery, St James, said it would move out of town. After the town centre surgery moved out, it was more difficult and more expensive to get to from South Lynn and the town centre, if you do not have a car. Funding was found, from the NHS, for a new Primary Care Surgery in South Lynn.
The South Lynn Health Hub was built at a cost of £11.5 million and opened a year ago. But still has no doctors in it. Out Patients from the local hospital, first time physios, Mental Health, but no doctors. Now Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Integrated Care Board says it won't fund doctors in South Lynn Health Hub.
This is about access to doctors and to NHS Dentists and Diabetic Nurses, in a community that's among the 20% most deprived in England. For better health outcomes.
