Expand Stratford Minor Injuries Unit!
The minor injuries unit at Stratford Hospital is currently open only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 09:00 and 16:00.
Liberal Democrat MP Manuela Perteghella, alongside local Liberal Democrat councillors, are calling for the local Integrated Care Board and South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust to work together to extend the number of days the unit is open. Nobody plans a minor injury, so being open 3 days a week is not sufficient enough to adequately treat our community.
Making better use of existing facilities is one of the most practical ways to reduce unnecessary pressure on an already overstretched A&E department.
This is about making better use of a facility that already exists, in a way that benefits patients locally and offers relief to over stretched services.
Please sign the petition to back our campaign for our Minor Injuries Unit to be open more than 3 days a week:
