[5][6] Jackie Daniel, chief executive said in June 2016 that she hoped to make her hospital "as small as humanly possible" as part of its new care model plans.

Emergency and maternity services are to continue in Barrow and Lancaster, but about 65 weekly outpatient clinics will be replaced by community provisions and beds will be reduced.

It will get paid more per episode for accident and emergency, surgery, trauma and orthopaedics, paediatrics, women's health, and non-elective medical conditions.
