Visiting times on our general wards are being extended on Wednesday 18 January and Thursday 19 January. For all other visiting guidance please visit our website: bit.ly/3ejxerT
Relatives and friends of patients in hospital will be able to visit general inpatient wards at any time between 10am and 8pm during Wednesday 18 January and Thursday 19 January, rather than being restricted to the usual ward visiting hours. While all our wards will be safely staffed during the Royal College of Nursing industrial action, additional support from families and friends would be welcomed during this time so that our nursing staff can focus on clinical care - for example, to assist with mealtimes.

Delighted to welcome 80 staff from across Dorset to our first #DCHFrailtyconference Such an important subject
We are deeply saddened to hear of the death of Her Majesty The Queen. We were honoured to have Her Majesty officially open our hospital in 1998 and know that many people have fond memories of that day. We offer our heartfelt condolences to the Royal Family at this difficult time.

Popped home from #ukkw2022 to dialyse overnight before day 2 & that is why nocturnal #homedialysis rocks 🥳 I don’t have to choose between work, fun or dialysis I get to do everything. Relevant after today’s #psychosocial talks, preserving life participation is a priority in #ckd

Very clear and wise talk by @Javeria_Xx highlighting that focus on driving down length of stay may translate to worse care for pts with AKI in this very vulnerable pt group #UKKW2022
