>>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. 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. Some quick facts:

the Trust employs 3,000 staff
we have beds for 400 patients
70,000 people come to Accident and Emergency every year
we treat 20,000 elective patients, 200,000 outpatients, and deliver over 4,000 babies every year.

Whilst no further cases of meningitis have been reported in the Kent outbreak, you may still have questions or worries so we're sharing more information to help.

Meningitis B needs close and prolonged contact to spread, such as living in the same household or intimate contact such as kissing or sharing drinks and vapes. It is not as contagious as other infections like measles or COVID-19.
