It was reported that there would be £215 Million invested in the overall programme including St Helier Hospital’s development (c. £140 million) which included an urgent care centre dealing with minor injuries, intermediate and post operative care. A full Accident and Emergency service would continue at St Helier. One of 1005 Agenda Item 2 Page 2 St. Helier, The Wrythe and Wandle Valley Local Committee 9 December 2008 the four new health centres would be based at Shotfield Health Centre. A temporary clinic would be set up in Mint House, to provide decanting space for services whilst Shotfield was being developed. The new health centre at Shotfield would be the first centre to be completed and would deal with minor injuries, minor procedures and also provide facilities for blood tests, ECGs, X-rays, community therapists and dentistry. The centre would be open for 12 hours per day and five days a week. Work on this facility should be complete in about 2 years time. There would be voluntary sector support and community mental health care available at the new health clinics, which would deal with up to 50% of outpatients services and would be more accessible which would be a great improvement for the residents of the borough. There was a proposal to demolish Ferguson House at St Helier Hospital to provide a new facility, which would house services such as a major new ward block and outpatient consulting rooms and other services such as coronary care, physiotherapy, cardiac rehabilitation, occupational therapy, pharmacy and the League of Friends.
