Holy Cross Hospital is owned by the Congregation of the Daughters of the Cross, a registered charity for the promotion of healthcare and education. The Sisters founded the Hospital in Haslemere in 1917 as a sanatorium for treatment of Tuberculosis. It has seen many changes over the years and benefits from having a modern building that opened in 1992 and suits the needs of patients and staff.
The aim of Holy Cross Hospital is to take forward the mission of the Congregation of the Daughters of the Cross, by serving people who are sick or suffering and their families.
The Hospital offers services that are not generally available locally through the National Health Service. In particular it has developed services for people with severe disability including such long-term conditions as head injury or illness of the brain or nervous system. Many patients are referred by a NHS Hospital and their treatment is funded by the NHS.
Some patients require the Hospital’s services over long periods and the maintenance of a home-like environment is especially helpful for them and their families, while at the same time having facilities to meet the expected range of clinical needs and treatments.
The Hospital responds to needs of local people, for instance, by providing out-patient services and hosting a Social Club for people who have had a stroke.
