Rapid Health Impact Assessment for Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals Trust - ‘A New Health Service for Liverpool, World Class Hospitals, World Class Services’
The overall aim of this HIA was to maximise the health benefits, which could result from implementation of the proposals by the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospitals to redesign its services, develop a new hospital to replace the Royal Liverpool University Hospital (RLUH) on its existing site, and make further investment at Broadgreen Hospital. In order to do this, the following objectives had to be achieved; Identify and profile the population groups who will be affected by the proposal. Identify the potential positive and negative health impacts of the proposal and set out clearly who will be affected by these impacts. Make recommendations for the elimination or mitigation of negative impacts (or compensation for those affected). Make recommendations for the maximisation of positive impacts
