West Park Hospital is a modern NHS adult psychiatric hospital in Darlington, County Durham, England. It is managed by the Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust.
The hospital was procured under a Private Finance Initiative ('PFI') contract, to replace outdated facilitates at the Pierremont Unit and the Beaumont Ward at Darlington Memorial Hospital and at the Gables Unit in Sedgefield, in 2002.[1] It was built at a cost of £16 million and was officially opened by Alan Milburn, Minister for the Cabinet Office, in December 2004.[2] At the time of opening the new facility had 24 rooms for older people, 60 bedrooms for acute adult patients and 10 intensive care beds.[1]
In 2009 the Trust decided to exercise a break clause in the contract allowing it to terminate the contract early by paying £18 million up front.[3][a]
