Part of 1. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services – in the Senedd at 2:27 pm on 2 December 2020.
Yes. To be fair, the Member has raised this with me before, and I thank her for the opportunity to put something on the record today. Hywel Dda University Health Board has announced it will transfer patients who are currently being treated in Llandovery Community Hospital to the Amman Valley Hospital. They've approved the temporary measure after considering a number of options and working with stakeholders, local general practitioners, the community health council and elected officials. After that, there will be no in-patients in Llandovery. That will allow them to not just deep clean the site but also to then reopen it as a green site as well. So, they're actively considering how the hospitals can provide the best positive care for people with COVID-19 and those people who do not have COVID-19. I expect that the Member, in her capacity as a regional Member, will receive a direct update with more detail on those plans direct from the health board. If that doesn't happen, please do return to me and I'll make sure it will.
