A public event will be held in Machynlleth next month as part of a consultation on the shake up of health services in mid and west Wales.

A Hywel Dda University Health Board meeting on 29 May voted to sign off on beginning a consultation on a new Clinical Services Plan.

The plan includes turning Bronglais’ stroke unit into a ‘Treat and Transfer’ Unit and will also see changes across Hywel Dda hospitals on critical care response; Urgent and Emergency Paediatrics; Planned Care (Dermatology, Elective Orthopaedics, Ophthalmology, and Urology); Emergency General Surgery; Professions and Health Science Diagnostics (Endoscopy and Radiology) and Primary Care and Community.

An event will be held in Y Plas on 7 July between 2pm and 7pm.
