Useful information

We encourage our patients to get dressed everyday as you would do at home. Well fitting, comfortable and supportive footwear is essential.

All toiletries are required.

Snacks and drinks can be brought in, please check with the nurse that what you bring is suitable and safe.

All inpatient wards at Hampshire Hospitals have adopted John’s Campaign, which allows the carers of patients with dementia to stay in hospital with their loved ones if they wish.

Contacting us

Please be aware we are a busy ward but will answer your call as quickly as possible. It is recommended that families allocate one member to contact the ward and feedback any updates accordingly. Please be aware that we are only able to give limited information out over the phone.
