Salisbury District Hospital invites the community to its anniversary Open Day

For the last five days, due to a technical fault, we have been unable to receive pregnancy notifications via the ‘Register Your Pregnancy with Us’ button on our Salisbury Maternity Unit website. We are pleased to announce that this issue has since been resolved. If you have informed us of your pregnancy and have not received a call from your midwife (within the last 72 hours of you logging your details with us), please re-register your pregnancy, using the Register Your Pregnancy with Us’ button on the website  or email us on sft.maternity.routine.enquiries@nhs.net, or you can call  our Triage Team on 01722 425185. Thank you. We are extremely sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

The special service being held by Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust and Salisbury Cathedral to mark the 75th anniversary of the NHS and 80 years since the US Army opened a hospital in Odstock on 26th June at 5:30pm will include a reading of a commissioned work by playwright Paula B Stanic. Paula’s work was featured at the ‘We Reflect’ service held at the Cathedral in March 2022. Everyone is welcome to attend. In creating this piece, Paula was particularly interested in the volunteers who work in different roles around the hospital, including Odstock Radio which is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year. Paula is pictured above.

During the 72-hour industrial action by Junior Doctors, which started at 07:00 this morning, and will continue until 07:00 Saturday morning, Salisbury District Hospital will be operating a Bank Holiday-level service. The focus of the hospital during the days of strike action is to maintain safe and compassionate patient care. Our Accident & Emergency Department will be fully functional as will our Maternity Unit, and we will have safe staffing levels for all inpatients. We’re working to ensure our wards are safely staffed and that critical services are maintained.
