The Princess Royal today, 28 June, officially opened Bradford Royal Infirmary’s new £28m hospital wing.
The multi-million pound investment, which took two years to build, houses two spacious children and young people’s wards, a state-of-the-art 16-bed intensive care unit, dementia-friendly wards for the elderly and a new retail concourse.
Her Royal Highness was formally accompanied on her tour of the new wing by Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust chairperson, Professor Bill McCarthy and chief executive, Professor Clive Kay.
This development is part of the Foundation Trust’s £75m investment to improving patient care in its hospitals over the next five years.
