Mission & Purpose

Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust provides a broad range of general medical and surgical services for more than 400,000 people every year. Our mission: "Milton Keynes is a hospital committed to learning, to honesty, and to the best possible care and experience for every patient, every time."​ About us: Milton Keynes Hospital occupies a 60-hectare site to the south of the city centre. We are a medium sized district general hospital, serving Milton Keynes and surrounding areas. The hospital has approximately 400 inpatient beds, and provides a broad range of general medical and surgical services. We have a busy A&E Department that manages all medical, surgical and child health emergency admissions. As our local population grows, we continue to develop our facilities. In addition to providing general acute services, Milton Keynes Hospital increasingly provides more specialist services, including cancer care, cardiology and oral surgery. We have responsibility for treating premature babies born locally. Some of the babies we treat are born as early as 24 weeks old (16 weeks early), and weigh as little as 500 grams.
