PLUS: Inside the world of the UK's first AI paedophile
Hello, Five years ago, Boris Johnson promised to transform North Manchester General Hospital. The Crumpsall site, which has some of the oldest buildings in the NHS, has been likened to ‘a 19th century workhouse’.
Now, the Manchester Evening News is calling on the government to commit to the urgent rebuilding of the hospital. Staff tell of problems ‘every single day’ caused by the ageing estate – and money is being used just to keep buildings functional, effectively just to ‘stand still’. She makes the case for transforming North Manchester General to help tackle health inequalities in north Manchester - something health experts believe is the ‘holy grail’ to solving many of the other issues we face.
Plans for the site could turn it into an innovative health campus, with a new, fully-modernised district general hospital with a refurbished A&E, walk-in centre, labour wards, operating theatres, x-ray and outpatients facilities, as well as education hubs and wellbeing hubs.We say enough is enough. The people of Manchester deserve better.
