Poole hospital’s year gets off to an efficient start
Alliance Medical unit manager Mel Captain, head of operations, south, Emma Liddle and BMI The Harbour Hospital executive director Dan Stonell.
Imaging staff at BMI The Harbour Hospital in Poole have started the year by welcoming a new £2 million imaging suite, including a Siemens Aera MRI wide bore scanner that was lifted into the imaging department just before Christmas by a 25-ton crane.
Made possible through an investment partnership between BMI Healthcare and Alliance Medical Limited the MRI/CT unit is planned to open in mid-February and will also house a GE Optima 660 64-slice CT scanner.
Executive director Dan Stonell said: “I am delighted that our patients will benefit from the most up-to-date technology available in this field. The hospital will be able to more efficiently meet growing patient demand and provide a more convenient service.”
