Text of petition:
The reduction/closure of services at other Hywel Dda hospitals has caused a crisis at Glangwili.
Patients are having to travel huge distances to reach emergency care, increasing reliance on ambulances.
The CDU is no longer functional as a true Clinical Decisions Unit and is operating as a ward, with unwell patients being forced to sleep in chairs in the CDU or remain in A&E as there is no ward space to admit them.
The NHS staff are doing their best but the situation is untenable.
