Rothbury Community Hospital

Services that operate from the hospital include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, outpatient and child health clinics.

Whilst the inpatient beds are closed at the moment we are working towards implementing an integrated nurse / therapist led 24-hour community care facility, with medical cover and a flexible bed base, at the hospital.  This will mean that patient care will be interchangeable either at home or in a hospital bed depending on clinical need. Our aim is to have this integrated care hub operational from April 2020.

Rothbury Cottage Hospital is located in the village on south side of the River Coquet.
