Fantastic to mark this milestone with the Nightingale Hospital Exeter team yesterday and hear from some of the patients who are using the new Buttercup Unit
We were delighted to celebrate the opening of the Buttercup Unit at the Nightingale Hospital Exeter today. The new unit is the final part of transforming the Nightingale from a COVID-19 hospital into an elective and diagnostic care hub that will reduce waiting times for patients.
