North Hertfordshire NHS Trust. Ambulance services are provided by East of England Ambulance Service. There has been longstanding criticism of hospital facilities in the area. In 2019 West Herts 21st Century Hospital Solution, a local campaign group engaged BDP Healthcare to produce plans for a new acute general hospital in West Hertfordshire. They say this would be “financially feasible and far preferable to existing plans to carry out piecemeal repairs”, but NHS managers say this option vastly exceeds the funding threshold, and they propose to apply for £350 million of central government funding for “significant investment” at Watford General Hospital, upgrades to surgery facilities at St Albans City Hospital and the consolidation of Hemel Hempstead Hospital.
