Delivering same-sex accommodation

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

The NHS has set out its commitment to privacy and dignity in a number of critical policy initiatives. The NHS Constitution states clearly that all patients should feel that their privacy and dignity are respected while they are in hospital. NHS Hampshire believes that providing same-sex accommodation is an effective way of helping to achieve this goal and of giving all patients the best possible experience while they are in hospital. 

As part of the ‘Delivering Same-Sex Accommodation’ program local hospitals have been working to all but eliminate mixed sex accommodation by 2010.

All of the trusts across Hampshire have now published declarations about their compliance with same sex accommodation requirements. These declarations are available on the following websites.   

Southampton University Hospital Trust – Compliant
Portsmouth Hospitals trust – Compliant
Winchester and Eastleigh Health Care trust  - Compliant
Basingstoke and North Hampshire NHS Foundation Trust -Compliant
Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust - Compliant
