MHK seeks update on Ballasalla Medical Centre

An MHK in the South of the Island is set to ask the Health Minister for an update on Ballasalla Medical Centre in the House of Keys.

Jason Moorhouse wants to know if Lawrie Hooper will make a statement about the management of the GP practice and the provision of services to people registered there.

Manx Care announced earlier this month it would be taking over the medical centre on an interim basis from May, following the practice's decision to formally hand back their contract. 

Patients were assured that they would still be able to access GP appointments as normal. 

The sitting takes place at 10am on Tuesday.
