The hospital was established to provide local community services in central Derby following the closure of Derbyshire Royal Infirmary in 2009.[1] It is located further south-east along the London Road from the former infirmary site.[1] Improvement works were carried out to consolidate services on the new site in 2011.[2] It was renamed from the London Road Community Hospital to the Florence Nightingale Community Hospital in July 2021.[3]
The facility is a modern facility which provides community services including rehabilitation and intermediate care, inpatient facilities and some outpatient services.[4]
