We’ve handed the keys over on a £1.5 million project with the Dorset Clinical Commissioning Group, which saw Carlisle House Surgery, Lagland Road, Poole, relocated to a modern, fit-for-purpose location in the Lifeboat Quay building off Holes Bay Road, Poole.
Lifeboat Quay Medical Centre will now offer its patients eight consulting rooms and three treatment spaces, as well as an interview room, staff welfare facilities, and an office base to allow an independent district nurse to operate from the surgery. Initially serving 6000 patients, the medical centre has been strategically designed and ‘future proofed’ to cater for the area’s growing population, and will eventually have the capacity for up to 13,000 patients, offering 84 parking spaces, with allocated spaces for disabled patients. The new location is also just 100 metres from a bus stop for patients using public transport.
