The Leith Community Treatment Centre is a Community Hospital in Edinburgh, Scotland.[1] It is operated by NHS Lothian. It is situated in Junction Place, Leith.

Overview

The Leith Community Treatment Centre opened its doors in June 2004, providing a new location for outpatient services that had previously been based at the Leith and Eastern General hospitals.[2] It has inpatient facilities alongside outpatient clinics over its three floors, including physiotherapy, radiology, electrocardiography (ECG), paediatrics, midwifery, dentistry and a day hospital.

It has been described as an excellent model for how a community hospital can work in an urban setting to provide a range of health and social care services.[3]

The centre won an award in October 2014 for introducing a more patient-friendly endoscopy, which requires no sedation or aftercare.[4]
