History

The hospital was procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 2007 to replace Peterborough District Hospital and the Edith Cavell Hospital. It was designed by Nightingale Associates and built on the site of the Edith Cavell Hospital by Multiplex at a cost of £340 million and opened to patients in November 2010. [1] The official opening was carried out by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in November 2012. [2] In same month, the National Audit Office reported that the Trust board's poor financial management and procurement of the scheme, which had been unaffordable, had left the Trust in a critical financial position. [3]

Facilities

The 612 bed hospital has a Cancer Centre, Cardiology Centre, a Women's and Children's Unit and Adult and Paediatric Emergency Centres. It features 4-bedded 'cruciform wards’ which creates a large personal space around each bed and maximises the availability of daylight. [4] The British Red Cross provides support services to help avoid admissions or speed up discharge from the hospital. [5]
