Last year my husband spent 10 weeks in hospital after a stroke. He struggled to eat the food served to him and I was preparing meals at home and taking them to him to ensure he had fresh nutritional food instead of the processed sugar heavy food provided by the hospital. He was fortunate I could do that. Some patients will not have anybody who can provide them with an alternative healthy option to eat.
Julia supported: Improve Nutrition in NHS Hospitals for Better Patient Care and RecoveryIt is impossible to get to the other surgeries with no transport. Many patients will be left in limbo. We have nowhere else to go.
Ann supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)My grandparents can barely get an appointment at any of their surgeries as it is (they keep being offered callbacks which they are unable to access). Closing Higham is going to make it worse.
Charlotte supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)Not only will this affect the existing residents of the village, not everyone has access to a car and public transport is not fit for purpose between Higham, Cliffe, Cliffe Woods and Wainscott. How about the new housing developments at Cliffe Woods and Cliffe? the planning that has gone in for 800 houses at Wainscott, a further 250 at Cliffe Woods and 63 in Cliffe? All these residents will be using a reduced number of surgeries. They need to expand not close down.
Katie supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)Around 75% of village residents are registered to this practice and instead of them being able to walk a short distance to their local surgery, closing Higham Surgery would mean a 45 minute journey on two buses...if they're lucky. We must not take away this convenient, respected and (mostly importantly) necessary village service.
Fran supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)Higham is a community that needs a local gp, the others are simply too hard to get to for those that can not or do not drive. I've lived in Higham for nearly 5 years and I've noticed it has lots of older residents due to the amount of bungalows and retirement home many of these will be even more unable to get medical help. In a time where we have more people than available doctors and getting an appointment is already impossible we need more doctors surgeries not less, the other surgeries will not cope with another town to service.
Suzanne supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)Not only is this service being taken away from vulnerable people and families who live around the area but more houses are being built all the time and it's part of the infrastructure.The surgery is linked to Cliffe,Cliffe woods and Wainscott and I have a choice to travel to one by car if another surgery has no appointments.Higham is one choice also and I find the above very useful as seeing a GP is difficult these days .
Alison supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)This surgery is very important to many people, especially those who are elderly in the village and have no means of transport to get to the other 'out of the way surgeries '. There are no bus routes straight to the other 'out of the way surgeries ', so do not let them take away the comfort feeling of having a Dr's surgery you can WALK to.
Suzanne supported: Objection to Closure of Higham Village Surgery (Highparks)Higham surgery is very important to the people in the village, especially those who are elderly and have no means of transport to get to the other surgeries '. There are no bus routes straight to the other 'out of the way surgeries ', so do not let them take away our Doctors surgery, which serves the whole of the Village and the surrounding areas.
