Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust (Website)

Rotherham Hospital is a modern, progressive hospital, situated two miles south of Rotherham town centre in pleasant suburban surroundings. The first phase of the development opened in 1978, phase two in 1984 and two major capital schemes, forming phase three, were completed towards the end of 1994. A major refurbishment of the main entrance area carried out in 1999 in partnership with the private sector resulted in the Trust now possessing some of the best reception facilities in the country; supported by cafes, major retail units and a cash-point machine. In addition the new ‘Lord Scarbrough Macmillan Suite’ has now been completed and has been helping patients since September 2005.

Another addition will be a pathology unit that will offer brand new accommodation and expansion to the department. The centre was completed in 2007 and offers much needed extra space for the Pathology unit's varied and vital work
