Save the Nursing Beds in Belper
Keep nursing beds available in Belper. Start a Consultation Process for the future of Babington; we do not accept it is right to enter into an immediate period of engagement.
Why is this important?
Protect the 10 overnight nursing beds at Babington hospital.
Babington Hospital faces closure. This means up to 18 beds for rehabilitation, palliative and end-of-life care are being lost.
The Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) claim that the nursing beds will be provided at Ashbourne, Ripley and Ilkeston. This presents immense problems for people who have to travel. Furthermore there are questions about capacity and there is no guarantee that these beds will remain available. The strategy is to cut 535 beds across the county in the NHS.
There has been no full, open and public consultation over the closures of Babington hospital and the loss of nursed beds.
Make no mistake. These nursing beds will be lost if we do not object now. Please make your voice heard by completing the questionnaire in the link below. There is little room for expression other than using the free text box at the end to reject the Engagement Process and call for a full public consultation:
