Chase Farm Hospital
27th June 2007
I am committed to the retention of Chase Farm Hospital's A&E and Women and Children's services.
I am firmly against plans to downgrade our local A&E. It can only lead to a diminished service for my constituents.
The latest plan is another step in the wrong direction for Chase Farm. Hospital managers have not learnt from the Trusts own debt-ridden history that merging and centralisation provides a less responsive and effective service. Local patients should not have to pay the consequences of Government and management failures by losing our A&E.
I have seen first hand with my family the life saving value of our A&E. A transfer of the emergency services to Barnet is unacceptable and will put patient safety at risk., I am using every opportunity to raise the issue in Parliament and seek confirmation of the guarantee given by the Government before the election to safeguard Chase Farm’s A&E. I have also been campaigning locally, challenging hospital managers about the plans and supporting the community campaign against cuts to our A&E. Please complete the form on the back to register your opposition to the plans and attend the public meetings I am holding!
The message from Enfield Southgate is "Keep off our A&E and Women and Childrens Services".
Demand that Chase Farm stays open, with all of its services intact.
