Health, Education and Technology (HEAT) Project Salisbury
25/03/2020 – Please read the statement from the HEAT Project Salisbury team
HEAT Project Salisbury is designed to explore the potential for the Salisbury District Hospital site, working with education, research and technology to create a truly 21st century healthcare centre.
We are in the early stages of the process and are keen to gather feedback from the public. Two public exhibitions took place in March to understand the priorities for the community.
Please take a look at our events page for the full exhibition details.
Project background
Salisbury District Hospital is, like many other hospitals, facing a challenging future and must plan for increased pressures on resources, greater efficiency and improved service delivery.
The hospital is not a modern build but has evolved over time, becoming Salisbury’s largest employer, and a pivotal part of the local economy. However, to ensure its long-term sustainability and viability, it has to reconfigure to make the best of its specialist services and work with other providers in the community to ensure it can deliver an optimum service to the city and surrounding region.
It is therefore vital that the existing healthcare facilities are re-invigorated and extended.
