Our view of the service

Fulwood Hall Hospital is a private hospital in Preston, Lancashire and operated by Ramsay Health Care Operations Limited. The hospital provides surgery, outpatients and diagnostic imaging services for NHS and private fee paying adult patients.

At this assessment we looked at outpatients and diagnostic imaging services and carried out an unannounced inspection during 7 and 8 April 2026. The purpose of the assessment was to re-rate the outpatients and diagnostic imaging services due to the age of the previous rating and to follow up regulatory breaches from the previous inspection in December 2018.

Our assessment only looked at the outpatients and diagnostic imaging services at Fulwood Hall Hospital. Our findings for both these service groups can be found in the services section of this report.

At this assessment we identified 1 breach of regulations in relation to good governance in outpatients and 1 breach of regulations relating to good governance in diagnostic imaging.

At the last inspection we rated the location as good. The overall rating of Fulwood Hall Hospital remains good following this inspection
