Hopewood Park
Hopewood Park is a purpose-built mental health hospital in Ryhope, Sunderland.
Hopewood Park is an assessment and treatment centre providing psychiatric intensive care. The hospital also delivers a ‘moving on’ service for people with complex care needs who require short term intensive rehabilitation.
As well as providing inpatient and community care the hospital is also home to the Street Triage team which is delivered in partnership with Northumbria Police, a carers’ information hub, and the Initial Response Service for Sunderland and the South of Tyne.
