The Fountain Medical Centre
In June 1994, we looked at the possibility of expanding our then current site (Morley Health Centre) and decided that this was not feasible, so our interest turned to a site on the Fountain Street roundabout. This was purchased, and construction of the new premises began in December 1995. Briefly the building comprises:
Ground Floor
Pharmacy
Reception and waiting area including children’s play area.
General Office
Doctors’ consulting rooms
Nurses’ consulting rooms
Treatment suite, minor surgery theatre and endoscopy, recovery rooms and changing rooms.
As mentioned above this whole area is to be upgraded in 2006, along with a programme of phased refurbishment of Consulting Rooms and all Public areas over 2006/07.
