Useful information
D2 is a 19 bedded short stay orthopaedic trauma ward admitting patients directly after a referral from the Fracture clinic and accepting patients through our perioperative ward D3. Patients that are being admitted are asked to bring an overnight bag, further belongings can be delivered to the ward if required. Please avoid bringing in items of any value.
As with All other inpatient wards at Hampshire Hospitals D2 have adopted Johns campaign, which allows the carers of patients with dementia to stay in hospital with their loved ones if they wish. Please speak to a senior member of staff if you feel this has not been honoured. #Johnscapaign
We also strongly support #EndPJParalysis, encouraging patients to get dressed and mobilise as soon as safe to do, to help with a positive attitude and encouraging activity that can help recovery.
