Historia biográfica

The workhouse at Stanwell, later known as Staines Union Workhouse and Staines institution, was built, probably in the 1840's, by the Board of Guardians of the Staines Poor Law Union and administered by the Board until it was transferred to the Middlesex County Council on 1 April 1930 as a Public Assistance Institution. In 1939-1940 an emergency hutted hospital was built in the grounds and it became known as Staines Emergency and later as Staines County hospital. It continued to be technically administered under Poor Law powers until the end of the Second World War in 1945 when it was appropriated to public health purposes and the name changed to Ashford County Hospital. It was transferred to the North West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board in 1948, since when it has been known as Ashford Hospital.

In 1998 Ashford Hospital was merged with Saint Peter's Hospital, Chertsey, Surrey to form Ashford and St Peter's Hospital NHS Trust. Major building works have transformed Ashford into a centre of healthcare excellence. Most of the wards and many departments are located in buildings opened in 1995 and no patient area is more than thirty years old. The Education Centre is in the newest part of the building and provides a focus for training activities in the hospital, including a well-equipped library with computerised access, and a state of the art lecture theatre.
