Royal Gwent Hospital
ROYAL GWENT HOSPITAL: Air Ambulance helicopter landing area at Tradegar Park
Note: All three of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Location: Just SW of Newport town centre
Period of operation: ?
NOTES: This seems a most extraordinary situation in the 21st century. But, as is constantly being exposed for many years, a large number of senior NHS management 'teams' are utterly corrupt and incompetent. The last item on their agenda being patient care.
This appears to be another example, Air Ambulance flights reportably landing in Tradegar Park, about 1.5 miles from the hospital. And, as my third pictures shows there is a generally practical landing area next door and just SW of the hospital. So why isn't that being used?
As I understand it, there is a period known as the 'Golden Hour' during which patients at serious risk can often be saved. Clearly every minute counts so it is hard to understand why Tradegar Park has been selected? If anybody can kindly offer advice, this will be most welcome.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
