We believe that providing same-sex accommodation is an effective way of giving all patients the best possible experience while they are in our hospitals and a key way of keeping our promises.
We are 100% compliant with, and committed to, the Government’s requirement to provide our patients with same-sex accommodation in order to help safeguard their privacy and dignity.
Our patients are placed in male- or female-only sleeping areas and have easy access to same-sex toilets and bathrooms unless they actively choose to share accommodation which they sometimes do in areas such as paediatrics, cancer care and haematology.
On occasion patients who need urgent, highly-specialised care, such as intensive care, may be placed in mixed-sex accommodation for a period of time before being moved into same-sex accommodation.
Data on our performance on providing same-sex accommodation can be found on the NHS Choices website.
Let us know your comments, compliments and complaints so that we can listen, learn and respond
