Result:
GREAT NEWS ! From 1st October 2007, a six month Pilot Scheme will provide an URGENT CARE CENTRE at Kidderminster Hospital with Consultant supervision and a Doctor - led team with Emergency Nurse Practitioners and Clinical Support as an integral part of the Minor Injury Unit. The Minor Injury Unit is open 24 hours and the Doctors will be in the Urgent Care Centre Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm. Nigel Knowles fully supports this excellent new service and it becoming permanent.

We, the undersigned, call upon the Worcestershire Primary Care Trust and Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust to provide an URGENT CARE CENTRE at Kidderminster Hospital.

We strongly urge that the extra new NHS funding provided to the Trusts by the Labour Government be invested into this vital service for patients in Wyre Forest, Worcestershire and elsewhere.
