Community Diagnostic Centres: Opening Hours
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many Community Diagnostic Centres are open for at least 12 hours every day.
- Answer
-
There are currently 109 community diagnostic centres (CDCs) offering at least one diagnostic test, check or scan for 12 hours a day, seven days a week.
CDCs are a shining example of the Government shifting care out of hospitals and into the community, making life easier and more convenient for patients. With many services planned to be open 12 hours a day, seven days a week, people can fit appointments around their lives, not the other way around.
