To support infrastructure works taking place at Bassetlaw Hospital, a temporary ambulance route to the Emergency Department will be created on 26 June and will lead directly off Blyth Road.
To create this route, we have had to close an existing car parking and the route is for emergency vehicles only.
A new pedestrian route to the Emergency Department has also been created, and access to the main entrance has been retained.
Anyone coming to the Emergency Department by car can continue to use the existing Blyth road entrance and park in the newly created car park on the north side of the hospital and use the Clinical Therapies entrance (during the hours of 5am to 10pm) as an alternative entrance or take the short walk to access the new pedestrian route to the Emergency Department from Blyth Road.
Please be assured that our emergency department remains available for patients in a genuine emergency, and patient safety and care remain our priority.
If you are attending the site whilst these works are carried out, please remember the main entrance remains open, as does the Clinical Therapies and Maternity entrances.
We are placing appropriate signage around the site to ensure people are able to get where they need to be.
The works are expecting to be completed in 2024.
