Opened in August 2020, Rye, Winchelsea and District Memorial Hospital built a brand new Hub for community wellbeing.
It is an exemplar for community care and has been designed with four zones in mind:
Treatment / Therapy Spaces
Group Activity Spaces
Office Space & Meeting Rooms
Cafe
The Project:
A healthcare complex of 5 buildings on one site, offering a range of services, Hub on Rye Hill provides a new cutting-edge community wellbeing centre.
‘The Hub on Rye Hill is inspirational! Congratulations to those involved.’
Dr Helen Tucker, President of the Community Hospital Association
Rye Memorial Hospital is a 19-bed in-patient hospital and an 11 room outpatient clinic leased to the NHS East Sussex, which offers intermediate care and consultant and nurse-led clinics.
There are 55 extra care units offering independent living with access to warden care 24-7 (St Bartholomew’s) and a new purpose-built state of the art 60-bed care home (shortly to be started on site, 25% will be social housing). The GP surgery is also on the site, as is a residential assisted living care home.
