Thanks for everything you have done to make the move seamless @KerryTa24800219 I hope you’ve had a break?
Stopped by to see my amazing MatNeo team @UHD_NHS and deliver some well earned Easter treats. I'm in awe of this team who have settled quickly into their new work home and still have a smile for me on Easter Monday - I think the chocolate helped 😊 #TeamMatNeoUHD

Lovely send off to St Mary’s this morning. Lots of memories shared. For me personally, 18 years of obstetric anaesthesia, 5 years planning and delivering the move and 3rd baby born in room A 16 years ago. Theatre looks very bare! ⁦@UHD_NHS⁩

What a day
Our St Mary's Maternity Unit is now closed and there are no staff on site at the unit. If you need Maternity services go to the BEACH Building at the Royal Bournemouth – follow signs for zone B. If you need Early Pregnancy or Emergency Gynaecology services, go to the West Wing.

Absolute privilege to be working with these multitalented, can-do people. A moment to stop and reflect how much we’ve achieved as we make final preparations for our next clinical move - maternity on Monday !
Let’s hear it for our Strategy and Transformation, Estates, and HR colleagues who’ve been busy behind the scenes making sure our new builds, staff and services are ready for us to deliver first-class patient care. We simply couldn’t have done it without them, so thank you all! 🀩

A great day - not surprisingly managed with supreme calm by the team. Everyone already commenting how much more privacy there is for patients as well as less noise, space & fancy lighting. So many can-do people - Ruth our critical care matron from initial design to move SRO πŸ‘πŸ‘
Today, #TeamUHD celebrates a major milestone! πŸŽ‰ Our critical care team at RBH has moved into the new BEACH Building. With more services joining next week, RBH is on course to become the major emergency hospital for the region. A big thank you to all involved! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

It’s amazing seeing everyone pull together as we get closer to using our new building. Found my new fave spot today in the children’s recreation room. Sadly no time to sit and soak up the sun!
Thanks to Maggie and Sally-Ann, two of @UHD_NHS amazing army of volunteers, for showing tours around the BEACH building at RBH as radiology, maternity, critical care and emergency services prepare to move in over coming months. It looks incredible @steviekillen @IsabelSmith01 !
