Rejected petition Don't make Poole Hospital's A&E a minors unit - leave it for majors too.

They want to make Bournemouth the real emergency A&E and then downgrade Poole. That means the serious cases will be diverted to Bournemouth Hospital. Some people will have to travel further to get to Bournemouth Hospital and it will take longer than if they went to their nearest hospital.

More details

Don't fix what wasn't broken. Sure, upgrade hospitals and make them better, but don't change Poole Hospital's facilities to deal with less serious cases, especially if they're closer!
