We are an NHS district hospital, operating in Yeovil on the South Somerset/Dorset border. We have around 2,200 staff, working ... to care for approximately 185,000 people, primarily in south Somerset, North and West Dorset and parts of Mendip. Our Hospital has 345 beds, and a private patients’ wing, the Kingston Wing. We provide a full-range of clinical services, including general medicine, cardiology, general surgery, orthopaedic surgery, trauma and paediatrics, with an emphasis on enhanced recovery – this means we help people to recover as quickly as possible so they can return home. We also work hard to keep our waiting times as low as possible, meeting and exceeding the standards demanded of us through national targets. Each year, we see around 20,000 emergency admissions, 3,500 elective admissions, and 18,000 day cases. More than 40,000 people attend our accident and emergency department each year, our maternity department delivers nearly 2,000 babies, and our intensive care unit looks after many hundreds of people. read more
