Ward J47 is a 25-bed acute surgical unit within the Abdominal Medicine and Surgery Clinical Service Unit (CSU). We provide specialised care across multiple fields, including surgery, colorectal, urology, gastroenterology, hepatology, renal, and hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.
In addition, J47 manages the Lincoln Wing Discharge Pod, a dedicated space designed to streamline patient discharge, allowing patients to leave the hospital earlier and improving overall patient flow.
During your stay, to better meet your medical needs, you may be moved to another ward as necessary. On your discharge day, you may be asked to sit in the Discharge Pod while awaiting transport, the arrival of relatives, or the finalisation of any medications needed for home. This setup helps ensure a smooth discharge experience, freeing up beds for incoming patients.
