Community theatres

We run five Day Case Units in the community at Axminster, Exmouth, Heavitree, Sidmouth and Tiverton.

Axminster, Exmouth, Sidmouth and Tiverton

Each of the suites has one operating theatre, for day-case elective surgical procedures, and a recovery room and day-case ward, which provide immediate post-operative care for patients following procedures under general, regional or local anaesthesia.

Heavitree

In addition to this, we also have two theatre units, each with a recovery room and day-case ward within Heavitree Hospital, for day-case elective surgical procedures. We also have a procedure room where we carry out smaller procedures, for example, injections and procedures not requiring full anaesthetics.
