Yeovil District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

It provided acute care for a population of about 180,000, people living in South Somerset, North and West Dorset, and parts of Mendip.

[2] In December 2014, the trust established a 15-year strategic estate partnership to fund and manage a new health campus with construction companies Interserve and Prime.

The £70 million deal will enable the trust to expand the number of beds for patients with dementia, create a GP practice, a nursing home and a retail pharmacy and to relocate its day surgery service onto the campus.

[4] It set up a subsidiary company called Symphony Healthcare Services in 2016, which took over the running of three small GP practices with a combined registered list of 12,500 in March 2016.

[9] In November 2020 it was reported to be planning a merger with Somerset NHS Foundation Trust, which would create England’s first provider of primary, acute, community and mental health care services.
