Ensuring that local people can access good quality healthcare has always been one of my top priorities.
So far this year my work has included:
- Relentlessly lobbying the Prime Minister & Health Secretary to secure a £196.5 million investment at Calderdale Royal Hospital and Huddersfield Royal Infirmary, to improve the quality of our local health services.
- Working closely with senior doctors on plans to reconfigure our local health services to ensure that our NHS services (including A&E at Calderdale Royal Hospital) are protected and that they continue to provide an excellent level of health care to you and your family.
Did you know?
- The Government are spending an extra £394 million a week on our NHS, meaning our health service is better funded than it ever has been before.
- Nationally there are now 14,750 more doctors and 12,800 more nurses on our wards than in May 2010.
