Shadow
Health Secretary visits the PRH
After the meeting with Duncan Selbie, the new Chief Executive of the Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust; Nicholas Soames commented; “Andrew was very impressed with all that he saw and heard at the PRH. He has a real grasp of the reconfiguration issues which are indeed being replicated all over the country.” Andrew Lansley and Nicholas Soames visited the A&E and met A&E nurses and the duty consultants and other staff. Speaking to the BBC, Andrew Lansley said: "What we are fighting for is not to see services shut down and have to re-open them, we're fighting to maintain services" Commenting Nicholas Soames said; “This was a really useful day and I am very grateful to Andrew Lansley for taking the trouble to come down and visit the PRH to see what a magnificent facility it is and to learn from campaigners, who he met outside the PRH on arrival, of the vital task of keeping our much valued and necessary A&E and maternity services.“ On returning to Haywards Heath Nicholas Soames joined the panel at the first Fit for the Future public meeting on the future of the PRH.
