West Kent is a traditional subdivision of the English county of Kent. Residents of West Kent are called 'Kentish Men', as opposed to residents of East Kent, who are known as 'Men of Kent'. West Kent had separate Quarter Sessions from East Kent, based in the town of Maidstone, until 1814 when the administrations were merged.
The Mid Kent NHS Treatment Centre was officially opened with a visit by the Health Minister, Andy Burnham.
A key objective at WestKent PCT is the promotion and improvement of good health. This is done by encouraging local people to take responsibility for their well-being in order to lead healthier lives.
WestKent PCT’s vision is to engage people from right across the community in developing health services.
