WQ.385/2020
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE ASSISTANT CHIEF MINISTER
BY DEPUTY R.J. WARD OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 20th OCTOBER 2020
Question
Will the Minister state the number of private beds that will be available as part of the new hospital development and the cost to the public purse of developing any such private facility?
Answer
The current proposal is that the new Hospital will have 30 private beds. This is an increase over the existing provision of 14 private beds in the current hospital.
The cost will be part of the overall Our Hospital Project design and build programme. The provision of private beds at the Hospital will be income generating and will contribute positively to the Health and Community Service budget.
