Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is a major district general hospital located in Surrey, close to the Hampshire and east Berkshire borders. It was built in 1974 to provide a full range of district general hospital services for the population of north east Hampshire and west Surrey replacing a number of cottage hospitals. Its catchment population at that time was around 170,000. Constant development in the surrounding area has seen this figure rise steadily to more than 400,000 today, including parts of east Berkshire, and this figure is expected to grow further. Since 1996 the Trust has hosted a Ministry of Defence

Hospital Unit, with military staff fully integrated with NHS colleagues across the hospital. Due to its consistently strong performance over several years, Frimley Park Hospital became a foundation trust on 1 April 2005. As a foundation trust, it is accountable to its local community and aims to have representative membership of its catchment area, with members providing feedback to the Trust on the services that it provides. During the past year Frimley has been quite literally building for the future. The face of Frimley Park has changed with the building at the front of the hospital of the state of the art new Emergency Department, helipad and day surgery unit. The £22m development, which is nearing completion, will equip the hospital to function as a trauma unit for many years to come. A further £4m investment in the new cardiology wing, and accreditation as both a regional heart attack centre and hub for vascular surgery, have all underlined the hospital’s credentials as a hyper acute centre.

It was built in 1974 to provide a full range of district general hospital services for the population of north east Hampshire and west Surrey replacing a number of cottage hospitals. Its catchment population at that time was around 170,000. Constant development in the surrounding area has seen this figure rise steadily to more than 400,000 today, including parts of east Berkshire, and this figure is expected to grow further. Since 1996 the Trust has hosted a Ministry of Defence Hospital Unit, with military staff fully integrated with NHS colleagues across the hospital. Due to its consistently strong performance over several

years, Frimley Park Hospital became a foundation trust on 1 April 2005. As a foundation trust, it is accountable to its local community and aims to have representative membership of its catchment area, with members providing feedback to the Trust on the services that it provides. During the past year Frimley has been quite literally building for the future. The face of Frimley Park has changed with the building at the front of the hospital of the state of the art new Emergency Department, helipad and day surgery unit. The £22m development, which is nearing completion, will equip the hospital to function as a trauma unit for many years to come. A further £4m investment in the new cardiology wing, and accreditation as both a regional heart attack centre and hub for vascular surgery, have all underlined the hospital’s credentials as a hyper acute centre.
