There is a £157m maintenance backlog at the Royal Preston and a question mark hangs over how that will be managed over the next decade
Two key units that support the urgent and emergency care service at the Royal Preston Hospital are getting a £15m upgrade.
The funding boost will see the transformation of what are currently largely makeshift areas of the hospital, with the medical assessment unit being expanded and the surgical assessment unit revamped to accommodate more specialties. Meanwhile, the SAU cares for patients with potential surgical needs under six specialities – general surgery, vascular, orthopaedics, ear, nose and throat, plastics and urology.“Aiming to be complete by July 2024, the planned expansion will help to right-size existing facilities to enhance capacity, improve pathways and increase direct patient access.
