The service provides step down capacity from acute trusts for medically stable and optimised patients, whose care and assessment can be continued in a non-acute setting until they are ready to go home. It will also be open to patients needing step up care from community settings that require reablement or convalescence where alternative out of hospital home care has been exhausted.

Referrals can be made via the Single Point of Contact, which operates from 8.00am until 9.00pm Monday to Sunday on 0300 323 0240.

Friends and family of patients can visit either of the two wards between the following times:

Monday–Sunday: 1-5pm and 6- 8.30pm.

Protected meal times are operational between 12 noon– 1pm and 5– 6pm.
