Employer Information

Yeovil Hospital is a rural hospital based in the market town of Yeovil, serving a population of around 185,000 people in south Somerset and Dorset.

In 2015 we were recognised as a national ‘Vanguard’ site for new models of care. We are progressing our work with GPs and local partners in the development of new models of integrated care, which will deliver a sustainable, high quality, health and social care system. These plans are a key element of the Trust’s strategic objectives.

We have maintained positive feedback from patients about their care, reflected in our ‘iWantGreatCare’ survey, in which we achieved an impressive 4.75 out of 5 star rating.

Among our accolades, the Trust has won £50k in the National Lottery’s People’s Projects competition two years running, to improve life in hospital for older patients with dementia through an array of activities such as live music, art, gardening and dance to help combat feelings of isolation and loneliness.

Our fundraising efforts have also seen our plans to build a sensory dementia garden come to fruition, with the recent opening of our hospital garden. This fantastic space offers staff, patients, relatives and carers a quiet space to relax and enjoy being outdoors and features prominently in our ongoing activities for older patients.

Psychiatry and GP Placements

Yeovil District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust will remain your employer during your psychiatry or GP placement.

Psychiatry placements are with Somerset Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. Somerset has created an integrated health and social care provision for people with mental health problems, by establishing the first combined provider organisation in the country.  Somerset Partnership is commissioned to provide both the Health and Social Care aspects of Mental Health Services, which allows individualised packages of care to be provided, although the Health and Social Care budget streams are separately audited.  The Partnership became an NHS Foundation Trust on 1 May 2008. 

The Trust uses an Electronic Patient Record [RIO] for mental health and social care.  The system is now operational throughout the Trust and the electronic record is the prime record of clinical activity.
