ArtCare Creative Health and Wellbeing Service
ArtCare is the creative health and wellbeing service at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust. Creative health is widely recognised as a valuable asset to the quality of care provided in hospitals and healthcare settings.
If you’re new to creative health you can read our introductory guide.
ArtCare aims to inspire creativity and innovation in healthcare by delivering a quality arts programme.
In all its activities, ArtCare is looking to reinforce the link between the arts and healthcare and to raise awareness of the importance of a creative hospital environment to patient and staff wellbeing.
ArtCare and Wellbeing
ArtCare supports the wellbeing of hospital staff, patients and visitors with an array of online content to uplift and inspire you, including music from our Elevate artists, poems, storytelling and ‘have a go’ art guides.
We have also teamed up with Odstock Health and Fitness, the hospital’s onsite Leisure Centre, to bring you some online workouts.
Below are just a few examples of how we can support you.

Our staff at Salisbury District Hospital have long been well regarded for the quality of care and treatment they provide for our patients and for their innovation, commitment and professionalism. This has been recognised in a wide range of achievements and it is reflected in our award of NHS Foundation Trust status. This is afforded to hospitals that provide the highest standards of care.
