A hospital axing staff and wards has spent more than £27 000 on changing its name. Croydon University Hospital, formerly known as Mayday, used the funds to rebrand itself.
The bulk of the cash was spent on new signs and road directions while hundreds of pounds went on notifying patients of the change.
The £27,659 spend comes as Croydn Health Services Trust, which runs the hospital, announced it will axe 200 jobs this year and it will also close four wards by 2014 as it looks to save £34.7 million over the next three years.
Priorities, eh?
