Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Richard Taylor (Independent (affiliation)), on Thursday, 24 November 2005, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 87 members in total.
ROLE OF COMMUNITY HOSPITALS
That this House endorses the Government's pre-election manifesto commitment emphasising the vital role of community hospitals in the National Health Service; and accordingly believes that the role of community hospitals should be enhanced and developed and that proposals by primary care trusts to reduce or close in-patient beds in these hospitals, essential for intermediate care, should be resisted as it would add to the burdens on over-worked acute hospitals, reduce choice and accessibility for patients and impede the delivery of Government health objectives.
