NEEDED DOCTOR SURGERIES
This
petition was submitted by Anthony Diblasi having collected a total of 69
signatures.
Text of Petition
We call on the National
Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to reconsider the closure of
the following surgeries
Troed y Bryn in Penyrheol
Lansbury Surgery in
Caerphilly
The two practices combined
have a total of 3,962 registered patients.
Additional Information
If they close then it
would create a knock on effect with other surgeries taking the extra patients.
Longer wait times for
appointments and / or restricted access due to numbers.
There are planned housing
works in the Caerphilly Borough including Caerphilly and surround, so that
would increase the patient registered numbers mentioned.
Status
This petition was considered completed by the
Petitions Committee at its meeting on 12/05/2020.
Given that Lansbury and Troed y Bryn Surgeries
closed on 1 May following unsuccessful efforts to recruit a new GP, and
patients have been transferred to other local surgeries, the Committee agreed
that there is little further action that they could take. The Committee therefore
agreed to close the petition and thank the petitioner for highlighting the
issue.
Full details of the consideration of this petitions
by the committee and related documents can be seen on the Meetings tab above.
It was first considered by the Petitions Committee
on 12/05/2020.
