New MPs demand immediate action on Stepping Hill Hospital
Plan needed immediately after damage to ICU and demolition of Outpatients B Department
A new hospital for Stockport is the only proper solution to the ageing buildings at Stepping Hill Hospital. After the outpatients B department at Stepping Hill Hospital closed in November 2023, a new long-term solution is needed. There should be a new central hospital site at One Stockport (Merseyway) providing outpatients services, and expanding to provide critical departments at an accessible, central location.
