Market Square rated badly as site for our hospital

  • Hemel’s Market Square came JOINT BOTTOM the last time NHS experts rated possible sites for developing Dacorum’s hospital services
  • In 2018, the Market Square option got just 8 out of 16 on a scoreboard of things like:
  • OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY,
  • FUNCTIONAL SUITABILITY AND
  • WIDER ECONOMIC BENEFIIT
  • NHS technical experts gave top scores ranging from 11 to 13 out of 16 to various options on the CURRENT HEMEL HOSPITAL SITE
  • So – WHY are the Council and the NHS so keen to close our Hospital ?
  • WHY THE RUSH TO THE MARKET SQUARE, WHICH FAILED THE TESTS LAST TIME?
  • A table summarising selected ratings from the 2018 draft Strategic Outline Case reviewed by the Herts Valleys CCG Board is here:
