Swallownest court

The Sandpiper and Osprey wards are located within the Swallownest court, offering care and treatment through a multi-disciplinary approach that includes medical, nursing, occupational therapy, and psychology services. Both wards provide sectorised beds for patients aged 16 to 65 years old.

The Kingfisher psychiatric intensive care unit, situated at Swallownest court, offers intensive care beds for patients facing high-risk acute mental health problems, necessitating temporary and intensive interventions.

The Kingfisher psychiatric intensive care unit also conducts assessments for patients detained under section 136 by the police.

We also work with P3 charity to help our patients find homes or maintain tenancies during and after their hospital stay.

Swallownest court is a part of our adult mental health inpatient services.
