Ward A7 is the Care of the Elderly inpatient ward consisting of 34 beds and is staffed with a multi-disciplinary team of consultants, nurses, therapists, pharmacists, and a discharge facilitator. The ward itself has recently been renovated and designed to improve staff and patient experience. 

B12 is the Forget Me Not Ward and provides care for our patients with dementia. B12 has been designed specifically for dementia care with a wide garden space for patients to use whilst they stay with us. 

The Frailty Assessment Unit runs Mon-Fri 9am-5pm and offers appointments to patients who would otherwise attend A&E or admitted as an inpatient. The multidisciplinary team of Nurse Consultant, ACPS, Physician Associates, doctors, therapists and pharmacists works with patients and community teams to complete CGAs and provide robust discharge plans to avoid unnecessary admissions.

Our Stroke Rehab Unit is based on B14 and forms part of the shared pathway between St Helen’s and Knowsley and ourselves. Warrington based Hyperacute Stroke patients are treated initially at Whiston hospital before being transferred to our specialist MDT team for their rehab care.

OPSSU K25 (Older People’s Short Stay Unit) was opened in June 2025. It is part of the Department of Medicine for Older People and provides care for patients aged 65 years and over, who may be ready to be discharged within 72 hours of admission on the Frailty Assessment Unit (FAU).
