Enter and view visit to Summerlee Unit

We visited the Summerlee Unit on 30 September 2025. Summerlee Unit is an inpatient unit situated on the First Floor of Harry Sotnick House in Portsmouth.

Enter and view visits is a Healthwatch programme, enabling trained members of a local Healthwatch team to enter and visit  care services in practice; talk to patients, their families, and carers; learn about services from the perspective of people who experience the service first-hand.

This visit helped us understand how the Summerlee Unit plans and delivers successful rehabilitation outcomes for patients.

It was lovely to hear from patients about their experiences of Summerlee during patients’ rehabilitation journeys.

We also learned about the Trust's public communication and engagement plans for service changes, hearing patients’ and family members’ views on receiving rehab care at home.
