MBL negotiations regarding the closure of the X-ray department in Vimmerby have been ongoing for some time.
– We will pause X-rays in Vimmerby at the turn of November-December, says regional councilor Mattias Adolfsson.
For those living in the area of Vimmerby, this announcement means that they are referred to Västervik when they need an X-ray.
The decision to close the X-ray department in Vimmerby has caused the Moderates’ regional councilor Carl Dahlin and the Christian Democrats’ regional councilor Jimmy Loord to write an open letter to the Social Democratic regional council to get an answer to the question of whether it is about a permanent closure of the X-rays in Vimmerby.
– No decisions have been made regarding permanent closure. It’s about pausing the business because we haven’t managed to recruit the staff needed, says Mattias Adolfsson (S).
