RSH Critical Care Garden
To design and install a critical care garden for patients and staff to use to promote wellbeing and faster healing.
Shrewsbury Severn Rotary Club have agreed to establish a unique third floor balcony garden as a key feature of the new multi-million pound extension at Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
The innovative garden will enhance the experience of patients during their stay in the new healthcare facilities set to open in 2028. The gardens, located on the
third floor of the building, will form part of the new critical care unit and oncology ward.
Aiming to provide a calm space for patients and their loved ones, the garden and outdoor space will support mental and physical wellbeing during what can be a very stressful and difficult time. The garden will allow patients their pets, their families, and staff time away from clinical areas, so they are without the noises of medical devices.
Club president Johnathan Callwood said today he was ‘thrilled’ that Rotary was partnering with the Trust to plan for the gardens. Jonathan said: “Rotary has been at the forefront of many innovative projects over the years, but it is fair to say none as far-reaching nor exciting as this garden project.
