On the 23rd of September, I visited Tunstall Primary Care Centre to meet with members of the NHS Property Services (NHSPS).
NHSPS own a large number of England’s NHS primary and community care buildings and manage three centres across the constituency of Stoke-on-Trent North and Kidsgrove (Tunstall Primary Care, Orchard Surgery and Talke Clinic).
The purpose of my visit was to assess the improvements made to the site following a £1 million refurbishment which provided a new roof for the centre, as well as the installation of a modern heat pump system.
After the visit, Anna Waters, the Managing Director for the Midlands said:
“It was a pleasure to welcome David to Tunstall Primary Care Centre and share some of the recent improvements we’ve made to the site. These changes will provide a more resilient, sustainable property where patients and NHS colleagues can both access and deliver care.”
“We’re proud to have delivered another important project that supports the ambitions of the Government’s 10-Year Health Plan, bringing care closer to home. The upgrades also support our commitment to reducing the environmental impact of NHS facilities and achieving net zero carbon by 2040.”
