We want to eradicate dormitory ward accommodation across all of our hospital based services. Currently, three of our adult mental health wards in Lincoln and Boston still use dormitory accommodation and we are committed to obtaining funding to convert these environments to individual bedrooms for our patients.

We are currently applying for funding to re-provide these wards to enable us to meet the modern standards of mental health inpatient wards, and we would like feedback from our current and previous patients to help us plan for this.

We are in the process of designing and planning what these wards could look like and it is important to us to understanding the experiences of our patients.

If you have been an inpatient on a ward within our Peter Hodgkinson Centre at Lincoln County Hospital or on Ward 12 at Pilgrim Hospital at any time in the last ten years we would like you to please share your views.

 Please help us by answering the following questions
