Carers
Who is a Carer?
A carer is anyone, including children, who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, mental health problem or addiction. Carers are people who support others who would not otherwise be able to cope. The care they give is unpaid.
Different Types of Carers?
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.
