A psychiatric intensive care unit in Leicester has undergone a £1.6m revamp – the first major refurbishment since it opened in 1998.
Belvoir Ward, part of the Bradgate Mental Health Unit at Glenfield Hospital, provides care for adult mental health patients.
Its capacity was reduced to six in April 2024 due to damage in one area of the ward, but the upgrade means it can once again accommodate 10 patients, each with their own room.
Last year, inspectors from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) said the ward was “tired and in need of updating”.
