About the hospital

A community hospital built around recovery, dignity, and home.

Petersfield Community Hospital has served the people of Petersfield and the surrounding Hampshire villages for decades — a calm, familiar place where patients heal close to the people and places they love.

We provide a range of community health services from Petersfield Hospital, including two dedicated rehabilitation wards run by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust also runs services on site, expanding the breadth of care available under one roof.

Our clinical teams specialise in frailty, adult rehabilitation, and End of Life care. We work with patients and their families to design individualised care plans — supporting complex decisions around discharge, future destinations, and the small daily victories that mark a true recovery.

How we care

The principles behind every interaction.

Individualised care

No two recoveries are alike. Care plans are built around the patient — their goals, their history, their voice — and reviewed with them, not just for them.

Promoting independence

Rehabilitation is more than clinical. We work on the small, daily rituals that let patients return home with confidence and live life on their own terms.

Family as partners

Families sit at the heart of complex decisions around discharge and destination. We share information honestly, and we share the weight of the journey.

Dignity at every step

From frailty assessment to End of Life care, dignity is not an add-on. It's the lens through which every clinical and personal decision is made.

Close to home

Community hospitals keep patients near the people, places, and routines that anchor recovery. Healing happens faster when home is nearby.

Trusted partnerships

Working alongside Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust and primary care, we connect patients to the full breadth of NHS services without leaving Petersfield.
