Royal Shrewsbury Hospital's blood-taking unit is to relocate next month as part of construction work at the site.
The hospital's phlebotomy service is currently provided at Elizabeth House at the Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust site, but will move to William Farr House on Mytton Oak Road from Tuesday, August 27.
The phlebotomy service's new base will provide additional and larger clinical rooms with parking for patients provided outside the building. The main road also features bus stops for patients that are using public transport. The trust is now taking bookings for blood tests at the new site via their online booking system. Tests are available from August 27.
"The move means that patients requiring diagnostic tests will be seen in a larger clinical space away from a busy hospital site, with parking conveniently outside."
