The new Queen Alexandra Hospital is fully accessible for people with disabilities.
Doors and corridors are wide enough for wheelchairs, as are the main, north and east entrances. Desks and counters in public areas will have a lower section for wheelchair users.
New signage around the hospital has been appropriately colour coded for people with visual impairment and the lifts have speakers which notify you of which floor you are on.
There are more than 30 disabled parking spaces at Queen Alexandra Hospital situated in the multi-story car park on level 3 (ground level) and by the North and East entrances. Those using a disabled space with a blue badge can receive a discounted parking rate:

Long gone are the days when being in a clinical trial sparked fear. At Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, patients are given opportunities to take part in clinical trials, in fact when asked, over 90% of patients believe that others should be offered a clinical trial. They are a vital part of learning more about both health and illness, and aim towards making progress for the future.
