St Cadoc's Hospital

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St Cadoc's Hospital is located in Caerleon on the northern outskirts of the city of Newport.

It was designed by Alfred J. Wood FRIBA, London, and opened in 1906 as the Newport Borough Asylum. It was built to accommodate up to 350 patients, but in recent years the number of residents has been a fraction of that with the growing emphasis on care in the community.

St Cadoc's Hospital provides a number of mental health services:

Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services
Adult Mental Health Services are provided by 11 Community Mental Health Teams
Elderly Mental Health Services provided by 5 multi-disciplinary Community Mental Health Teams
