PLANS have been revealed by Hywel Dda Health Board for a £25m extension at Glangwili Hospital to the maternity and neonatal unit.
The plans include an extension to the car park, a new office building and ancillary works.
The ward had previously been branded ‘not fit for purpose’ in a 2015 report by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.
If approved, the project would be completed in 2020.
In the 2015 report, it stated: “The further development of clinical excellence can only occur if the accommodation to deliver such care is appropriate and adequate for patient safety.
“Further delay with ‘phase two’ is unacceptable and a potential risk to patient safety.”
