We are a 20 bed older person's acute ward which cares for people experiencing a variety of mental health conditions, who require assessment and treatment which cannot be provided in the community.

You may be admitted voluntarily or detained under the Mental Health Act.

We accept referrals through many different sources, including A&E, community teams or consultants.

We are a multi-disciplinary team, consisting of medical staff, registered mental health nurses, nursing assistants, occupational therapists, dieticians, physiotherapists and support workers.

After your treatment has finished with us, we'll safely discharge you back into the community with follow ups from our community teams.

Visiting Davenport ward

You are always welcome to visit your loved ones on the unit, please contact us before to arrange this and let us know if you are bringing children with you.

We will try to be as flexible and accommodating as possible but ask that you please try to avoid visits during mealtimes. The best times to visit are mid afternoon and early evening.
