Hospital Services

Llanelli Rural Council is set to lobby the Minister for Health and Social Services, Welsh Government and also local politicians following the Hywel Dda Community Health Council’s (CHC) decision to refer the health board’s review of its clinical services to the Welsh Government. This follows the Hywel Dda Health Board’s unanimous decision to downgrade Prince Philip Hospital’s A & E service and to close Mynydd Mawr Hospital within the next two years. The Rural Council will continue to argue the case for the retention of existing services and also the introduction of other services to ensure the people of Llanelli receive the health care services they need and deserve.
