Temporary changes

In May, we made the very difficult decision to temporarily close our Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) at Yeovil Hospital, which means we are also unable to safely provide care during labour and birth at the Yeovil Maternity Unit while SCBU remains closed. In October 2025, we have now announced the date for reopening, subject to meeting agreed safety criteria. Please speak to your midwife or read further information on our dedicated website pages – Important maternity and SCBU temporary service change updates
