Priory Elm Park located in Essex, is a specialist brain injury service which focuses on providing neurobehavioural rehabilitation for people with complex neurological needs, following an acquired brain injury (ABI), or traumatic brain injury (TBI). This includes the assessment as well as treatment of all individuals.

We provide neuro rehabilitation for detained and non-detained people, with an aim of reducing challenging behaviour, optimising functional skills and supporting a successful and sustainable discharge back into the community.

Inpatient rehabilitation hospital

Elm Park is a 17-bedded intensive rehabilitation brain injury service for males. It boasts a full range of on-site facilities including en-suite rooms, rehabilitation kitchen, extensive grounds, gym, football pitch, woodland walks and activity rooms.

Priory Elm Cottage and Elm House, our brain injury step-down, community rehabilitation services, have now closed. For more information about alternative services, please visit our Priory Adult Care website. Please note that Priory Elm Park will continue to operate as normal.
