Healing will be a major focus for 2023 at Northumberland Hills Hospital
With inflation continuing to affect the cost of food, housing and more it only stands to reason that hospitals are also feeling the pinch.
CEO of Northumberland Hills Hospital Susan Walsh told us that the hospital faces the same challenges as everyone for the coming year.
Inflation, Surgery Backlogs and COVID highlight issues facing NHH this year
Walsh said COVID-19 will remain a concern.
The latest mutation of the coronavirus, the Kraken, is the most transmissible variant to date and is a sharp reminder that we’re not out of the woods yet.
Walsh told us about NHH’s priorities in 2023.
Financial pressures due to inflation and the lingering effects of COVID will also be areas of concern for the hospital.
