Scarborough Hospital, formerly Scarborough General Hospital[1] is an NHS district general hospital in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. It is run by the York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
History
[edit]In the early 1930s it was decided to build a new general hospital for Scarborough; the cost of construction of £135,000 was financed in part by the sale of the site of a former hospital at Spring Hill and in part by public subscription.[2] The new hospital was opened by the Duke of Kent on 23 October 1936.[3] After the hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948, a major new extension followed in 1988.[3]
The hospital came under the management of the Scarborough and North East Yorkshire Healthcare NHS Trust in 1994[3] but on 1 July 2012 the Scarborough and North East Yorkshire Healthcare NHS Trust was absorbed by the York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.[4]
A new surgical ward, known as Maple Ward, was built by Elliott Off-Site Building Solutions at a cost of £2.4 million and opened in spring 2011.[5] Another new surgical ward, called Lilac ward, was built by Kier Group at a cost of £5 million and opened in March 2015.[6]
A new two-storey urgent and emergency care centre, to cost £47 million, was started in 2022 and should open in 2024.[7]
Services
[edit]Annually, the hospital sees an average of 127,000 patient attendances to its emergency department, in addition to 119,000 inpatients and 390,000 outpatient appointments.[8]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
