Health Board Takes Over Troubled Doctors' Surgery Amid Safety Concerns
BBC

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board is set to take control of Brynmawr Medical Practice from March, following reports of safety, staffing and supply issues at eHarley Street-managed surgeries. The move comes after BBC Wales exposed the concerns last year, prompting criticism from Eluned Morgan. The health board's takeover aims to address these issues and provide a more stable healthcare service, improving patient care and experience. With a focus on primary care and healthcare management, the board will work to restore trust in the practice. Key areas of focus will include patient safety, healthcare services, and medical practice management.
