Hounslow And Richmond Community Healthcare NHS Trust

Serving a population of over 500,000 residents of Hounslow and Richmond, the Hounslow and Richmond Community Healthcare NHS Trust aims to provide more of its care in patient’s own homes and more localised settings.

Teddington Memorial Hospital is the only hospital under the trust’s management but it does house an Urgent Treatment Centre. Over the many clinics and health centres the trust manage, as well as the hospital, a wide variety of services are offered. These cover various specialisms for the whole community from children to the elderly.
