New ambulance chief meets Witham’s MP
MP for the Witham constituency, Priti Patel, met with the new Chief Executive of the East of England Ambulance Trust (EEAST), Neill Moloney during a visit to the ambulance station in Witham.
Priti spoke to Mr Moloney about the great steps forward the ambulance trust has taken to improve patient outcomes over recent years. During the meeting Mr Moloney addressed his plans for the trust and how he plans to better train staff, deliver better outcomes and support the NHS to provide the world class care that people in East Anglia deserve. After her meeting, Ms Patel toured the Witham ambulance station and met with paramedics, drivers and staff who are working to deliver the best care and support to people in Witham and the surrounding areas.
Priti said: “It was wonderful to meet with new Chief Executive of the East of England Ambulance Trust Neill Moloney, and to speak with some of the incredible staff at Witham ambulance station. The dedication to serving the people of Witham and the villages is evident, and their passion for saving lives is truly inspiring.
Our Ambulance teams in Witham, Essex and across the country do such important work and I will continue to support them in any way I can. I would like to thank Mr Moloney for taking the time to meet with me so I could find more about his plans to take the trust from strength to strength. I have confidence that Mr Moloney will endeavour to improve outstanding issues around training, retention and recruitment of staff as well as improving outcomes for patients.”
