地区概况：北安普敦正合适。

Health Soc Serv J. 1980 Apr 18;90(4689):514-7.

An old county town that has retained its individuality through all the changes of the last three centuries, and is expanding vigorously to meet the challenge of the next--that is Northampton. The health services of the district reflect the town, and draw strength, as they always have done, from close links with the community they serve.

一个历经三个世纪的变迁仍保留自身特色，并正蓬勃发展以迎接未来挑战的古老县城——那就是北安普敦。该地区的医疗服务反映了这座城镇的特点，并且一如既往地从与所服务社区的紧密联系中汲取力量。
