#Newedleics

The focus on the new Emergency Floor building site this week has been the drainage system. Concrete panel and storage tanks are being put into place to create the underground drainage system. The new Accident and Emergency Department will eventually sit on top of the concrete panels! We're really excited about our new Emergency Floor and the progress we're making towards making it a reality. Did you know... Every day we will treat 70 patients with an eye injury.

Our new Emergency Floor is literally taking shape this week, as more concrete is poured into the space made on the building site... Our doctors and nurses are really excited by the progress on the building site and can't wait for next Winter, when the first part of the building - the Accident and Emergency Department - will open its doors. The new 'roundabout' is taking shape at what will become the new ambulance entrance to A&E.   Did you know... Everyday, patients missing appointments costs us £19,680.

It's been another productive week on our building site, as we make good progress towards the creation of our new Emergency Floor. We've seen the first concrete laid this week, as the building itself starts to take shape Did you know... every day, around 600 patients will have their blood taken in our hospitals.
