Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has welcomed the commencement of work on the £15.8 million redevelopment of Chalmers Hospital and Health Centre in Banff.Commenting, Mr Stevenson said:
“We have seen with the local campaigns across Banff & Buchan over recent years on maternity units and renal dialysis that local is best so I am very pleased that work has now started on this project.
“It is clear that people want to receive treatment in their own community and this investment in health facilities brings closer the time when a new range of treatments will be available in Banff and district where previously patients had to travel long distances to access these.”
