Stockport community hospital commemorates first anniversary

Stockport 1st Anniversary

CHEC marks one year milestone with community celebration 

Staff and patients at CHEC Stockport were celebrating earlier this month after the community-based healthcare provider marked a whole year of working with the NHS to increase patient choice and reduce waiting times. 

Since first opening its doors in October 2023, CHEC Stockport has completed over 1,231 cataract surgeries. The community hospital has also succeeded in consistently maintaining very low waiting times, with patients currently able to access treatment within four weeks of initial referral. 

CHEC has established a stronghold for community healthcare provision across North West England, with hospitals in Trafford Park, Warrington, Preston, and Blackpool. Throughout the UK, CHEC now has more than 30 hospitals and 90 community sites.
