What discussions has the Welsh Government had about plans to close the Accident and Emergency department at Withybush Hospital following the decision to retain the accident and emergency unit at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital?
Hywel Dda University Health Board is responsible for the planning and provision of healthcare services for its local population.
The health board has proposed and consulted on changes to improve population health and healthcare services for communities in Mid and West Wales.
The health board decided in 2018, as part of its Transforming Clinical Services consultation, to replace Withybush Hospital’s A&E department with a centralised emergency department at a new hospital, which will be built, subject to the required business cases being submitted and approved, on the Carmarthenshire-Pembrokeshire border.
