Hemel Hempstead Hospital

Hemel Hempstead Hospital is an acute District General Hospital in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire operated by the West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. History The original hospital in Hemel Hempstead was established when Sir Astley Cooper converted a row of cottages at 130–136 Piccotts End to create an infirmary in 1827. The medical team moved to larger premises, acquired with funding from Sir John Sebright, 7th Baronet, at Cheere House at the bottom of Hillfield Road in 1832. The main block of the current hospital, then known as the West Hertfordshire Infirmary, was built further up Hillfield Road and was opened by Princess Mary of Teck in 1877. The hospital expanded to take military patients during the First World War. The Marnham Maternity Wing, which was started in 1926 when a foundation stone was laid by the Prince of Wales just north of the main block, opened in 1929. A children's ward was added in 1939 and panels of picture tiles, made by Carter and Co. of Poole, depicting animals from Noah's Ark decorated the walls. The panels were refurbished and reinstalled in the children's ward in 1995. Another new block was opened by the Queen Mother in 1959. The Verulam Wing, at the south-east end of the site, was added in 1992, the Jubilee Wing, just south of the main block, followed in 2002 and major enhancements consisting of an urgent care centre and a GP-led health centre were introduced within the Jubilee Wing in October 2008 and spring 2009 respectively. Services Most departments are located in the Verulam Wing; however the urgent care centre and the health centre form part of the Jubilee Wing. Controversy Large parts of the hospital site are currently mothballed and not actively used for healthcare provision, following the removal of the Accident & Emergency department in 2006. The West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, which operates the site and two others in Watford and St Albans, has announced plans to redevelop its properties and relocate key services to Watford General Hospital, in effect further downgrading the status of the Hemel Hempstead Hospital. However, these plans have attracted criticism from local residents groups, such as the Dacorum Hospital Action Group, who favour a newly built hospital equidistant from the three major population centres and who have launched a judicial review of the Trust's plan.

Hexham General Hospital

Hexham General Hospital is an acute general hospital in Hexham, Northumberland, England. It is managed by the Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. History The hospital has its origins in a facility built to treat wounded soldiers during the Second World War. It opened in 1940 and joined the National Health Service in 1948. At that time the hospital management took the opportunity to acquire the old workhouse buildings on an adjacent site to create administrative facilities for the hospital. A new hospital was procured under a Private Finance Initiative ('PFI') contract in 2001. It was designed by Jonathan Bailey Associates and built by Bovis Lend Lease at a cost of £54 million. It was officially opened by Tony Blair, Prime Minister, in January 2004. In June 2014, the Trust announced that it had borrowed sufficient funds from Northumberland County Council at a low rate of interest to pay off the consortium who had developed the hospital and buy itself out of the PFI contract.

St Peter's Hospital, Maldon

St Peter's Hospital is a health facility in Spital Road, Maldon, Essex. It is managed by Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust. History The facility has it origins in the Maldon Union Workhouse, which was designed by Frederick Peck in the Tudor style and opened in 1873, replacing an earlier workhouse on Market Hill. The Maldon Union Workhouse was known locally as 'the Spike', and had an ominous reputation. The workhouse became the Maldon Institution in 1930 and joined the National Health Service as St Peter's Hospital in 1948. In 2003 the building was considered for listed status, but did not meet the criteria. The age of the hospital building has led to problems in the 21st century. Hallways are narrow, and in 2024 Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board deemed parts of the building "no longer safe for patients to stay in or staff to work in" and estimated that £18.7 million in repairs were needed to fix problems including roof leaks that have caused cracks in walls. Improvement works were carried out in November 2018. Weight restrictions were introduced on the first and second floors, and the number of stroke rehabilitation beds was reduced as a result. In 2023, the stroke rehabilitation unit was moved temporarily to Brentwood Community Hospital in Brentwood and the labour and delivery unit was moved to Braintree Community Hospital in Braintree. In January 2024, the trust proposed closing St Peter's and relocating some services to sites elsewhere in Maldon. This prompted local protests, including a naked protest, and in September 2024 the plans were shelved. In July 2025 an alternative proposal was announced, under which the birthing and stroke rehabilitation units would be closed, while other services would continue until the opening of a new medical hub in 2030.

Stamford and Rutland Hospital

Stamford and Rutland Hospital is an elective care hospital in Stamford, Lincolnshire, administered by North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust. The Stamford and Rutland Infirmary opened in 1828. History The Stamford and Rutland Infirmary was built on a site previously occupied by Greyfriars, Stamford and donated by the Marquess of Exeter. It was funded by a bequest from the will of surgeon Henry Fryer, designed by John Peter Gandy and opened in 1828. Between 1876 and 1879 the hospital was expanded with the addition of three fever ward blocks, under architect Edward Browning with input from surgeon William Newman. The wards incorporated a number of features such as centralised ward interiors and glazed internal walling, and were cited as an exemplar of single-block planning for small hospitals, particularly by Henry Burdett. The fever wards are Grade II listed and show how voluntary hospitals dealt with 19th-century epidemics of contagious disease. The picture tiles in the fever wards, depicting the four seasons, are one of the earliest examples of the use of such tiles in hospitals. One set of tiled pictures has been removed and restored and is displayed in the entrance to the new Day Treatment Unit. A substantial redevelopment of the hospital was completed in July 2017, which included new imaging facilities, including a permanent MRI scanning suite, and cancer treatment facilities. Services The hospital provides a minor injuries unit, large scale outpatient services and day-case surgery, with the largest pain management centre in the region. It also has a medicine for the elderly ward with 22 intermediate care beds. The trust's largest hospital, Peterborough City Hospital, provides the majority of emergency and inpatient services in the area; the two together thus provide a comprehensive suite of services in a predominantly "hot" and "cold" split. It was rated "good" by the Care Quality Commission in May 2014. References Further reading Rogers, A.; Quinlan, J (1978). A short history of the Stamford and Rutland Hospital.
