Our local PCT (Derbyshire County NHS Primary Health Care Trust) are holding an open event to give out information and find out about what people want in relation to NHS Dentistry provision and the planned new Ashbourne health complex including the new hospital that will replace St. Oswald’s:
1pm to 4pm Saturday 11th October
Ashbourne Leisure Centre, Clifton Road
The event will give people an opportunity to find out more about the new facility and to ask any questions they have about the project to GP staff and key members of the project planning team (including managers of Derbyshire County Primary Care Trust (PCT), who have commissioned the services, and Southern Derbyshire Local Improvement Finance Trust Company (LIFT), a public private partnership, who are responsible for the design, planning, development and maintenance of the new building for the PCT).
The event is open to anyone interested in coming along. People will specifically be able to:
- Find out what the outside of the building will look like
- Learn about the health services that will be provided in the building
- Engage with a soon-to-be-established Community Involvement Network, which will look at health issues in Ashbourne by:
– Helping decide how some of the space in the building should be used
– Learning about how to get involved in the project development, both now and for the future - Make contact with voluntary sector partners
- Consult on what NHS dental services you would like to have in Ashbourne – which the PCT is investing an extra £450K in and is planning to increase by mid-2009.
