Aberaeron Hospital needs £1.4m to make it fit for purpose, officials have said
A former office block may become a health care centre as an alternative to a £1.4m revamp to bring a community hospital up to standard in Ceredigion.
Health officials want to invest in Minaeron, a former council building in Aberaeron, after .
They want integrated hospital clinics with a GP practice and social services.
Hywel Dda University Health Board has submitted its proposals to the Welsh Government.
It bought Minaeron from Ceredigion council last year.
In a joint statement, the council and health board said an appraisal of the current hospital concluded it was "not conducive to the provision of modern day health care provision".
It said a combined health and social care centre offered "significant improvements" in service provision, with the planned inclusion of the town's Tanyfron GP Practice.
Two-storey Minaeron was built in the 1970s
