The new state of the art building has three floors which will be home to the following:
Ground floor
This is a dedicated wellbeing space for community partners to deliver services and activities aligned to supporting the prevention agenda. SWFT work closely with the Stour Health and Wellbeing Partnership to deliver a range of activities.
First floor
Outpatients suite and treatment rooms for clinical activities. The services running from Ellen Badger will grow, but from June 2025 the following clinics will be running:
- Specialist Parkinson's clinics
- Physiotherapy
- Heart Failure Nurses
- Bowel and Bladder Specialist services (BABSS)
- Catheter Clinics
- Admiral Dementia Nurses
- Community Midwifery
- Speech and Language Therapy
Working with Shipston Medical Centre and the Coventry and Warwickshire ICB, we will also be delivering permanent GP spaces, co-located with community services to strengthen integrated care. Through a long-term lease, 11 consultation rooms (10 clinical rooms and a treatment room) on the first floor will be used by Shipston Medical Centre, with the space due to open Autumn 2025.
Second floor
This is shared spaces for community nursing teams, alongside Shipston Home Nursing teams to support the co-location of teams to support partnership working.
Based at the retained Ellen Badger Hospital estate, the EBMU six-month pilot launched on Wednesday 5 November 2025. The pilot will be closely monitored using patient feedback and clinical data to assess its effectiveness and inform future service provision.
Operating Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 4:00pm (closed on bank holidays), EBMU builds on the success of the Medical Day Case Unit (MDCU) at Warwick Hospital. The unit offers a range of treatments and procedures to provide patient-centred care closer to home. Patients, who must be referred by their GP, will have access to many of the same services offered at Warwick’s MDCU, including:
- Iron infusions, Zoledronic acid infusions, Furosemide infusions, Magnesium infusions
- Blood testing
- Frailty Multi-disciplinary Team (MDT) reviews
- Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments (CGA)
- Biologic infusions
- Intramuscular & subcutaneous injections
- And more, excluding higher-risk procedures requiring access to acute-site escalation.
The launch of the EBMU pilot reflects the Trust’s commitment to exploring new ways to provide care locally, guided by patient feedback and evidence, in line with the Trust’s objectives and the national NHS 10-Year Plan.

We are committed to improving patient safety. We’ve joined Sign up to Safety, a national campaign that aims to reduce avoidable harm by 50%, and we are part of the Leading Improvement in Patient Safety Programme.
Infection control
We have an Infection prevention and control team that develops and implements our strategy to help reduce infection risk at our hospitals. However, everyone can help keep infections under control, from using the alcohol hand gel before entering and when leaving a ward, to not visiting patients when you are unwell.
Smoke-free sites
In line with NICE guidelines and as part of our commitment to improving the health and wellbeing of the local population all of our sites became smoke free from 1 January 2016. Watch our video below for more information or read our Smoke Free Trust Policy.
Major incidents
As a major provider of healthcare services to Warwickshire and beyond, South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust is fully prepared to respond in the event of a major incident. This ensures that we are ready to manage the emergency with minimal disruption to our normal services.
