Trust news

Staff voices are shaping real change across High Secure Services. Using a “You Said, We Did” approach, improvements to staffing facilities and wellbeing are already underway – benefiting both staff and patient care.

Please see below for the opening times for our Medicines Management pharmacies at Maghull Health Park and Hollins Park Hospital over the Early May Bank Holiday weekend. Please note that both pharmacies are running emergency service only on Monday, 4 May 2026 from 9.30am – 1.30pm. Wards and clinical teams must ensure work is sent in advance before the bank holiday weekend.

We are inviting expressions of interest for a Senior Clinical Nurse secondment within Urgent Treatment Centres and Walk-in Centres (UTC/WICs). This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced nurse to further develop clinical quality, leadership, and governance skills, supporting high quality care across our urgent care services.

Sapphire Ward is based at Ancora House at the Countess of Chester Health Park provided by Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

5 May is World Hand Hygiene Day: all Mersey Care staff play a vital role in supporting World Hand Hygiene Day and reinforcing a culture of safety across our services. Small, consistent actions make a significant difference in protecting the people we care for and one another.
