Next week the Nelson Hospital will re-open. I am delighted after years of dithering, the Nelson has been designed, financed, built and now opened in the last four years. I am convinced it will be a huge asset to the local community.
I also the welcome the statement from the Chief Executive of St Helier Hospital. There has been a long running scaremongering campaign suggesting the Hospital or some departments were to close. This was never the case and I am delighted that the Chief Executive has confirmed there is no threat to the hospital nor the A&E or the Maternity Unit.
