History

The hospital has its origins in the Bury Union Workhouse Infirmary which was completed in 1905.[1] The facility became known as the Jericho Hospital in the 1930s and joined the National Health Service as the Fairfield General Hospital in 1948.[2][3] The hospital was modernised in the 1970s and, following the closure of Bury General Hospital off Walmersley Road in 2007, all services transferred to expanded facilities at Fairfield General Hospital.[4]
