FURTHER RECRUITMENT PLANNED AT CENTRE FOR URGENT TREATMENT

- By SAM VOLPE

THE new Urgent Treatment Centre (UTC) at a the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle city centre opened as planned last month with bosses saying it has led to “an immediate improvement”.

The new facility is located next to the emergency department at the hospital.
