Hywel Dda Health Board wishes to inform patients that the Accident and Emergency Department at Bronglais Hospital will be temporarily relocated from 8pm on Friday June 15 until Sunday June 17 2012.

During this time the department will be located in the Outpatients Department and Tirion Ward. The GP Out of Hours service will also be temporarily relocated to the Outpatients Department. The Welsh Ambulance Service Trust has been fully involved in the planning of the temporary relocation.

Signs will be placed at the hospital directing patients to the Outpatients Department, Caradog Road during the temporary relocation. The re-location of the A&E Department has been essential to enable works to take place on the Front of House project which will deliver a new Accident and Emergency Department, Clinical Decisions Unit and state of the art operating theatres at Bronglais Hospital.

Patients are reminded to ‘Choose Well’ and only go to Accident and Emergency in very serious or life-threatening situations. Hywel Dda Health Board apologies for any inconvenience caused. For further information contact Hayley Thomas on 01970 635658.
