The Local Showcase with Mandy P - 19th June 2025

The NHS says there may be better ways of providing services from one ward instead of two at Petersfield Hospital.

Wendy Rees, Managing Director of the Portsmouth and South East Hants division of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, talks to Mike Waddington about what is happening.

Wendy explains what is being suggested and why, and said there will be no redundancies in any proposals, and there will be a full consultation in four to six weeks time. 

More than 3,000 people have expressed concern in a petition headed 'Save Rowan Ward' and Wendy apologised for the distress the news may have caused and repeated no decision has yet been taken and that people need to hear the case for consideration, when demand in Petersfield for rehabilitation beds (where people are prepared for going home following a stay at Queen Alexandra Hospital) is falling.

Shine Radio will be following this story as the consultation proceeds.
