SUPPORT SOUTH BRISTOL COMMUNITY HOSPITAL

South Bristol Community Hospital (SBCH) opened in 2012 to provide people in South Bristol with diagnostic tests and therapy services closer to their homes. It houses Bristol's first urgent care centre for minor illnesses and injuries, a day surgery and a rehabilitation service where people are able to stay as inpatients.

Did you know?

• The purpose-built SBCH cost £45million to build
• It costs £454 for a patient to be cared for as an in patient, per day at SBCH
• Each year, around 32,000 patients are treated at SBCH
• Hengrove Park was chosen as the location because it is the centrepiece for regeneration in South Bristol.
