St Oswald's Hospital is a healthcare facility on Clifton Road in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, England. It is managed by Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust.[1]
__TOC__
The facility has its origins in the Ashbourne Union Workhouse which was located in Belle Vue Road and was completed in 1848.[2] It became the Ashbourne Public Assistance Institution in 1930 and joined the National Health Service as St Oswald's Hospital in 1948.[3] After the old hospital became dilapidated, a site on Clifton Road, just a few hundred yards south, was acquired and a modern facility was built and opened as the new St Oswald's Hospital in October 2010.[4]
