Ensuring a safe water supply at Wycombe Hospital
We recently identified an issue with the water in some parts of Wycombe Hospital. The safety of patients and staff is our main priority and experts advised us to fit filters to taps and showers, as a precautionary measure, to provide a protective barrier and ensure the water is safe to use. Unfortunately, due to the age of our estate, we could not fit filters to all of our taps and showers so in these areas we have provided alternative sources of water.
We are in the process of carrying out the necessary repairs and are undertaking water samples to show us that it is safe to remove the temporary filters and resume using the older taps and showers again. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
