RESIDENTS are being asked to take part in an engagement event which would see the town centre diagnostic centre expand its services.

New services, such as CT and MRI, urodynamics and retinal screening, are planned for the centre which is based in the Glass Works.

A spokesperson for Barnsley Hospital said: “The centre opened in April 2022 and offers blood tests, DEXA scans, ultrasound, X-ray and breast screening services.

“In phase two of the CDC’s development, we are planning to offer CT and MRI, urodynamics, ECG, spirometry and retinal screening services.

“In order to ensure that these services are tailored to the needs of the community, the hospital is inviting users of the services to an engagement event where their views and feedback can help shape the design, environment, communication and information provided within the centre.

“The patient experience team is inviting anyone interested in being part of the CDC phase two engagement event to contact them on 436302 or bhnftpatientexperience@nhs.net.

“Our work on the CDC has highlighted that we are able to make changes to give the best service to patients, but in order to do this we need to hear your voice.”
