History

The hospital, which was financed by public subscription to honour the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria, was designed by Robert Duncan and opened in November 1889. [1] [2] It served as a Red Cross hospital during the First World War. [1] An isolation unit for treating people with tuberculosis was added in 1925 and a day case unit was added in 1938. [1] After tuberculosis had been largely eradicated, the isolation unit was converted into a maternity unit in 1944. [1] A health centre was added in 1965. [1]

In August 2014 the hospital was used as a safe refuge for residents of local care homes in the wake of Hurricane Bertha. [3]

Services

The hospital has a small x-ray department with a full-time radiographer who also provides an electrocardiography and pregnancy ultrasound scanning service. [4] There is a 24-hour minor injury unit. [5]
