Hywel Dda reorganisation proposals: 'They're playing with people's lives' says caller Moira

Huge changes to the NHS across west Wales have been proposed by Hywel Dda Health board.
Moira from Goodwick, near Fishguard, is very unhappy with what's been tabled - as each of the three options put forward involve Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest losing its status as a round-the-clock general hospital.

In the proposals released by the health board on Thursday, Glangwili hospital in Carmarthen would also stand to lose key services including A&E. Bronglais Hospital in Aberystwyth would remain unchanged.
But a new hospital, including an A&E unit, would be built somewhere near the Carmarthenshire - Pembrokeshire border.

Health board members agreed to put the three proposals out to public consultation over the next 12 weeks.
