About Us
The present Chapel Allerton Hospital was opened in 1994 by HRH the Duchess of Kent A modern purposebuilt facility it was one of the first hospitals in the country to have stimulating artwork included as an integral part of the design and provides a bright modern environment for staff patients and visitors

The new hospital was built on to the existing Newton Green Wing dating from the 1970s It is located in pleasant grounds with ample car parking

Chapel Allerton Hospital is one of the most popular facilities in the Trust with our patients receiving consistently positive feedback Staff work very hard to provide a friendly caring environment

The Chapel Allerton Orthopaedic Centre CHOC opened in the hospital in early 2005 and is the Trusts dedicated centre for the diagnosis management and treatment of adult patients with upper and lower limb complaints

Since it was established the service has helped to dramatically reduce waiting times for orthopaedic treatment and cut the length of stay following inpatient treatment for joint replacements by half

History
Chapel Allerton Hospital has a long and distinguished history The original building now mostly demolished was opened in May 1927 by HRH Princess Mary and was located in the grounds of the stately mansion of Gledhow Grove off Harehills Lane with the house itself also being used as part of the site

The hospital run by the Ministry of Pensions was built in response to the continuing needs of the thousands of service personnel who suffered grievous wounds during the 19141918 war For many years thereafter it was linked with the armed services

The hospitals role gradually began to change from the 1960s onwards and concerns were increasingly raised about the unsuitability of many of the older buildings which included hutted wards built in the 1940s for modern hospital care

Plans for the muchneeded new building across the road from the main site got the goahead in 1991 and were completed in record time ensuring the hospitalacircs longterm future
