Dear Editor,
I am a very concerned resident of the Longville Park housing scheme. I think the relevant authority should put it as their first priority that the community gets a health centre.
I could use my mother as an example, but she died one year ago. It was a very hard task for her, especially when she fell ill late at night, to get medical help. It was only with the assistance from motorists who live close to her that she was able to travel to May Pen Hospital, which is a bit of a distance away, but the closest to the scheme.
There are quite a number of persons with the same complaint, especially the older residents. I think that for the next budget Minister Fenton Ferguson should put it on his agenda. I know he is a very generous person and he will consider our concern.
