The department is being significantly expanded, with a large front extension that will become the new Urgent Treatment Centre, and an adjoining two-storey new build that will house new staff facilities and new majors and paediatric assessment areas. Acute medical services are supported by a co-located Urgent Treatment Centre, NHS 111 walk-in and a Same Day Emergency Care Unit. These are highly motivated and focused departments, which pride themselves on delivering the highest standards of safe patient care.
