Update on Planning Submission for Mansfield Community Diagnostics Centre
Posted Friday, June 28, 2024 1:36 PM
Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is pleased to announce that in May 2024, the Trust submitted an updated planning application for Nottinghamshire’s first Community Diagnostics Centre (CDC).
The new plans outline the expansion of diagnostic services, ensuring faster and more convenient access to a variety of tests and investigations. Patients will benefit from quicker diagnoses and treatments. The CDC is designed to be a one-stop shop where patients can access a wide range of tests in a single visit, significantly reducing referral times.
With demolition works already underway, Sherwood Forest Hospitals is set to refurbish and remodel existing structures, creating a permanent home for the Mansfield CDC. The Mansfield Community Hospital site, located on Stockwell Gate, has a rich history dating back to its days as the Mansfield Union Workhouse later known as Victoria Hospital. The current development aims to preserve this heritage while providing a modern healthcare facility.
For more information about the planning application, the project, or the services that will be provided, please visit the CDC website at www.sfh-tr.nhs.uk/cdc.
