NHS Nightingale North East

In 2020, as part of the UK's response to the COVID-19 pandemic a number of NHS COVID-19 critical care hospitals needed to be set up and the IAMP's Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Advanced Manufacturing was selected as the location of the North East region's NHS Nightingale Hospital.

The site will have 460 beds available with the building divided into 16 wards.[12] It will be operated by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.[13] The hospital has been prepared by the British Armed forces working with the local NHS Trusts.[14] County Durham MP Richard Holden said when announcing the hospital on 10 April that is expected to be open for patients in the following two weeks.[13]

Location

The site is located just off the A19 road, next to the Nissan Motor Manufacturing UK car plant. Discussions have taken place with Nexus to assess the possibility of the extending the Tyne and Wear Metro to the business park which currently terminates at the South Hylton Metro Station on the other side of the River Wear.[5]
