Health Secretary visits new assessment unit at Northampton General Hospital

Health Secretary visits new assessment unit at Northampton General Hospital  Matt Hancock, the Secretary of State for Health, has praised staff at NGH's new assessment unit.

And the minister said he hopes other hospitals copy the Nye Bevan Unit's successful model, which aims to eliminate unnecessary A&E visits.

Mr Hancock said: "The new unit has made a big impact on A&E. It means people can get into a hospital bed, if they need it, faster than before. "I'd like to replicate this elsewhere in the country." Northampton Chronicle and Echo
