Opposition to ‘dangerous’ hospital bed cuts across East Devon is mounting - News - Sidmouth Herald
As the Herald reported last week, the consultation on the future of hospital provision comes to a close this Friday:
Don’t miss chance to have your say on plans to cut community hospital beds across East Devon
17:12 29 December 2016
Deadline looms on January 6
People are urged to have their say on plans to cut hospital beds across East Devon before the consultation closing date on January 6.
Proposals - that could see Sidmouth lose its inpatient unit - have met with widespread opposition and more than 5,000 residents have signed petitions opposing the changes.
Health bosses say a move towards a home-based model of care will help plug a predicted £384million deficit by 2020/21, and improve patient care.
Respond to the consultation at www.newdevonccg.nhs.uk, or paper copies are available at the town’s library, leisure centres, hospital and GP surgeries. Call 01392 267642 to request a copy.
Here are the Your Future Care consultation web pages:
