Roseberry Park Hospital is a mental health facility in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England, run by the Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust.

History

The hospital was procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 2007 to replace St Luke's Hospital, Middlesbrough.[2] The facility, which was designed by MAAP[3] and built by Laing O'Rourke at a cost of £75 million,[4] opened in 2010.[2] However, following concerns about defects in the building, some patients were moved to Sandwell Park Hospital in Hartlepool in October 2017.[5]
