The clinic doors are staying open and our phlebotomy services are officially safe. I keep thinking about how much this will mean for my neighbors who rely on this care every single month. Thank you for staying with me until we reached this win.
We, the undersigned, call for an immediate postponement of the closure of the phlebotomy (blood) service at Delce Healthy Living Centre until such time as a full consultation has taken place.
I have been spending my mornings at the center watching people arrive only to find the doors locked against them. The stories you are sharing in the comments prove just how much this service keeps our neighbors healthy and independent. My focus remains on pushing the local health board to explain why they thought this cut could happen without asking us first.

Seeing this level of support reminds me that I am not alone in worrying about my neighbors who rely on this clinic. This momentum proves that our community refuses to let these essential services vanish without a fight.

I have to get bloods done every month and the travel to the big hospital is impossible for me. Please keep it open.

This is ridiculous. Elderly people in this area rely on this place because they cant get to the main hospital easily. Stop closing everything down.
