Braintree Community Hospital
Choices
When you choose which hospital you are going to be treated at, you’ll probably want a few questions answered before you make your decision:
Is the hospital convenient for my family and me? Is it a clean and friendly place? What kind of reputation has it got for successfully treating patients?
And will I be treated with dignity and respect by well trained, highly qualified staff?
You deserve the answer yes to all of these questions and we are here to make sure you get the best NHS and private treatment, at the best time in the best way.
After all, it was the local community that got this hospital built in the first place. You campaigned and raised money so you could have an excellent community based hospital with outstanding Consultants, nurses and therapists. You did a good job. They are all here and ready to treat you as and when you need us.
Time to suit you
You told us you needed evening and weekend clinics, so that’s what you’ve got.
Waiting times? When you feel something is wrong you want to be seen as soon as possible. We have exceptional waiting times for clinics and operations. The national target is 18 weeks; Braintree Community Hospital has a 9 week period between referral to surgery.
From April 2011 – February 2012 we recorded 56.805 patient attendances for our services. We’re proud of this.
Your treatment
We take care of day surgery, diagnostic tests, rehabilitation and many more medical services. If you need to be treated for a hernia, require a CT or MRI scan, have eye treatment or physiotherapy, Braintree can offer you excellent care and attention. You are our priority.
The hospital is modern, fresh and vibrant and patients come to us because they know they will get the best of private healthcare alongside exceptional NHS treatment, often from diagnosis in our Rapid Assessment Unit to through to treatment and surgery. All this under one very welcoming roof, and you don’t even have to pay to park here.
We are a team. Our staff is fantastic, and our facilities are first-rate.
We are proud to serve Mid Essex as a community hospital so of you need fast, effective and caring attention, look for us when you go to the NHS Choose and Book service.
This is Your Hospital. It is Your Choice.
