Dorset County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust’s Board has agreed with the recommendation from an internal expert group to develop its own pathology service.
Board members made their decision at their meeting last week after hearing the findings from the group, which was led by pathology staff at the hospital.
The group led an evaluation of proposals from eight organisations who were invited to bid to run the labs in partnership.
