BCUHB employs around 16,772 staff and has a budget of around 1.3 billion GBP. We are responsible for the operation of three district general hospitals (Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd in Bodelwyddan and Wrexham Maelor Hospital) as well as 22 other acute and community hospitals, and a network of over 90 health centres, clinics, community health team bases and mental health units. We also co-ordinate the work of 121 GP practices and NHS services provided by North Wales Dentists, Opticians and Pharmacies. … The current service is available at all BCUHB sites with an existing corporate wireless infrastructure (circa 70 sites). The new Internet service will comprise the following elements; 1. General Public Internet WiFi service – available to public, visitors, and resident patients at all hospital and other sites (circa 70 sites). 2. Secure Internet WiFi service at various Mental Health Units (4/5 sites). 3.
