Dear Mr Powell

 

Peititon: Surgeries in Flintshire

 

Thank you for your letter dated February 2012.

 

The Health Board is presently engaged in a number of Locality Stakeholder events to discuss the development of Primary and Community Services.

 

One such locality is that which includes Flint and Holywell.  We have held one meeting and will be holding another in April and a third in May.  The purpose of these meetings is to address some of the current and future challenges in local areas.  I would envisage this discussion covering the need for a Primary Care Centre in Flint to identify options as to the way forward.  Local GP Practices and other stakeholders are engaged in this work.

 

Recommendations regarding change will be brought to the Health Board in June.

 

I trust that this provides an appropriate update on this issue.

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

GEOFF LANG

ACTING CHIEF EXECUTIVE
