The Priory Hospital Chelmsford Accommodation and facilities

The environment we create for patients is as important as the treatment, itself.  To this end, each patient has the privacy of his or her own comfortable bedroom, with television, telephone, and en-suite facilities.

Patients are encouraged to have their meals in the main dining room, which offers excellent choice of dishes.  Special dietary requirements can also be catered for.

We also provide comfortable communal areas where patients can rest and relax
