Scarborough Hospital, formerly Scarborough General Hospital[1] is an NHS district general hospital in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. It is run by the York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
History[]
In the early 1930s it was decided to build a new general hospital for Scarborough; the cost of construction of £135,000 was financed in part by the sale of the site of a former hospital at Spring Hill and in part by public subscription.[2] The new hospital was opened by the Duke of Kent on 23 October 1936.[3] After the hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948, a major new extension followed in 1988.[3]
The hospital came under the management of the Scarborough and North East Yorkshire Healthcare NHS Trust in 1994[3] but on 1 July 2012 the Scarborough and North East Yorkshire Healthcare NHS Trust was absorbed by the York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.[4]
A new surgical ward, known as Maple Ward, was built by Elliott Off-Site Building Solutions at a cost of £2.4 million and opened in spring 2011.[5] Another new surgical ward, called Lilac ward, was built by Kier Group at a cost of £5 million and opened in March 2015.[6]
