Monmouth Hospital

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Monmouth Hospital at Hereford Road, Monmouth closed on Friday 12 May 2006. Services were transferred to the Monnow Vale Health and Social Care Centre at Drybridge Park.

The Monmouth Dispensary was first located at Little Castle House, Castle Hill, in 1810. Monmouth Hospital and Dispensary was opened at Cartref, St James' Square, in 1868. In 1903, a new building for Monmouth Hospital and Dispensary opened in Hereford Road.

The latest building is the first of its kind in Wales and provides services previously based at Monmouth Hospital, Overmonnow Day Hospital, Dixton Road Clinic, Social Care and Community NursingTeams and Day Services. It has been developed in partnership with Monmouthshire County Council, local Voluntary Organisations, Gwent Healthcare NHS Trust and Monmouthshire Local Health Board. The facility was opened on July 20, 2006 by Dr Brian Gibbons, Minister for Health and Social Services.
