Nuffield Health Derby Hospital

The hospital is part of the Nuffield Health provider group of independent acute hospitals. The hospital opened in October 1981. The hospital provides care and treatment to NHS funded and self-funded (insured or self-paying) patients in Derby and the surrounding areas.

There were 38 inpatient, single occupancy bedrooms and an additional four beds in a step down unit, for patients who require more observation post surgery. The hospital offers a range of surgical and medical procedures including Oncology, Diagnostic Imaging, Refractive Eye Surgery and Endoscopy.

We inspected the Nuffield Health Derby Hospital on 14 and 15 October 2015 during our announced inspection. We also completed an unannounced inspection of the hospital on 28 October 2015.

At the time of our inspection, the hospital’s Registered Manager had been in post since February 2015.
