Phases 1 and 2 of Building for Better Care (BfBC) will provide new, modern, fit-for-purpose facilities at the ‘front doors’ of University Hospital Ayr and University Hospital Crosshouse. The ‘front door’ is the term used to describe the point of entry for patients coming to hospital for anything other than a scheduled appointment. The new facilities will make it possible to patients to get rapid assessment by senior clinical staff at the earliest point of their arrival in hospital.
