Combe Valley Hospital, Bexhill-on-Sea

Appointed by the Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, Kier are delivering a new £60m 54-bed acute inpatient mental health hospital in Bexhill as part of its Re-designing Inpatient Services in East Sussex (RIS:ES) Programme. This is the first step in the RIS:ES Programme which is aimed at providing all mental health inpatient services across East Sussex on a single site. The 57,393 sq. ft facility will provide high-quality inpatient services for adults and will replace out-dated services currently provided in the Department of Psychiatry at Eastbourne District General Hospital. There will be three 18-bed wards, all with individual bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms, surrounded by attractive and therapeutic landscaped green space. The new building will also provide outpatient services as well as training facilities for medical and other related professions.
