Podiatrists to begin work in new centre
Wednesday 2nd June 2010
A number of people with podiatry jobs have begun working in a new centre.
Costing £1.5 million to construct, the facility opened yesterday (June 1st) at Norwich Community Hospital.
It contains a theatre and the associated preparation and recovery suites, as well as general consulting and treatment rooms.
Meanwhile, a second theatre will also open in a couple of weeks.
Services at the location will be provided by Norfolk Community Health and Care.
Along with two partners, Anglia Support Partnership (ASP) and Norlife, the development is the work of NHS Norfolk - which provides healthcare to most of the county, excluding the area around Great Yarmouth.
Graham Copsey, director of estates commissioning at the organisation, said: "At a time of economic pressure, NHS Norfolk is looking to make public money go as far as possible."
He added that the project is a good example of organisations coming together to make a scheme successful.
