Medical staff arrive at Harrogate Nightingale Hospital
Medical staff have started arriving at the Harrogate Nightingale Hospital in a major milestone for the project ahead of the official opening.
The NHS has not yet revealed when the hospital will open but the Harrogate Convention Centre has been a hive of activity for the past couple of weeks.
Just last week the Nightingale Hospital Yorkshire and Humber turned blue to show support for the Clap For Carers event.
NHS and army staff have been working alongside BAM Construction “around the clock” to get the 500-bed facility up and running.
Eight of the convention centre’s halls will be used to accommodate level three critical care beds for Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.
The building firm behind the project previously said it expected construction work to finish by the weekend just gone.
