Peterhead Community Hospital is located in Peterhead, a coastal town approximately 32 miles north of Aberdeen, Scotland. It is managed by NHS Grampian.

## History

[edit]

The hospital was financed by a gift from W. B. Shewan.[1] It was designed by John Alexander William Grant and involved the conversion of a villa which was acquired in 1934 and the works were completed in 1939.[2] Following extensive redevelopment, new facilities were officially opened by Princess Anne in August 1994.[3]

In August 2005 Aberdeenshire Community Health Partnership issued a consultation document on Older People's Services, Maternity Services and Diagnostic and Treatment Services which included several proposals for reorganisation of services in the area.[4]

Work to the main hospital entrance was completed in March 2014.[5]

## Services

[edit]

The services provided include a small midwife led maternity unit. The hospital also has a minor injuries unit.[6]
