Emersons Green NHS Treatment Centre

Emersons Green NHS Treatment Centre is an independent hospital, owned by Care UK, contracted to provide treatment for NHS patients free at the point of use.

The treatment centre provides surgery, outpatient and diagnostic imaging services for the following specialities: ophthalmology, oral surgery, ear, nose and throat, general surgery, orthopaedics, gynaecology, urology and endoscopy.

Admission to the treatment centre for surgery follows strict referral criteria for people aged 16 years and over who require routine surgery. There is an outpatient department within the treatment centre for routine pre- and post-operative appointments. The treatment centre has an inpatient ward with 33 bed spaces.

There are four operating theatres, one minor procedure room and two anaesthetic induction rooms, operating Monday to Saturday.

We carried out a comprehensive announced inspection of Emersons Green NHS Treatment Centre on 30 and 31 March 2016, and an unannounced inspection on 11 April 2016
