Proposal
We are currently looking to relocate Ranworth and St James’ GP practices into the nearby Clacton Hospital site and would like to hear your views.
Both practices have expressed a wish to move from their current outdated premises, giving them the opportunity to deliver primary care services from new and more modern facilities and better serve their patients.
The relocation would also allow for the creation of a facility integrating community-based services at Clacton Hospital, such as the Urgent Treatment Centre, diagnostics, physio and other therapies and outpatients, with those care services provided by both GP practices.
No health care services would be lost as a result of the relocation, and the new facilities would offer an improved environment for patient care and a better working surroundings for staff.
Through relocating, both practices intend to enhance and expand their training facilities and increase recruitment and retention of staff, which will be beneficial for the growing area.
There are no plans to remove services from the local area – the CCG is looking to enhance the local primary care offer. The relocation of the existing practices is less than a mile away from their existing premises.
We know there may be some concerns over relocating the practices, such as transportation and parking, so we would welcome your feedback on the proposals.
