About us
We are a small community hospital providing outpatient and day services to the residents of Bournemouth, Christchurch, East Dorset and part of the New Forest. Some specialist services cover a wider catchment area, including Poole, the Purbecks and South Wiltshire. The Macmillan Unit also forms part of our hospital, providing inpatient palliative care in a warm and welcoming environment.
Our catchment population is covered by Dorset and West Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs).
There are a number of exciting changes on the horizon over the coming years, including the rebuild of the Macmillan Unit. Read more about the future of our hospitals here.
