Healthwatch Havering published a report on St George's Health and Wellbeing Hub following a visit in April 2025. The report highlights significant concerns, including very limited car parking and a high number of complaints about this issue. Staff parking is complicated due to time restrictions on local streets. The hub, which opened in November 2024, still appeared unfinished, with temporary fencing and inadequate signage. Other points of concern included a lack of changing facilities near the midwifery service and safety risks associated with low balustrades in mental health services. The building, while clean and welcoming, has inadequate patient access.
Healthwatch Havering has reported significant concerns regarding St George's Health and Wellbeing Hub, highlighting limited car parking and inadequate services for patients and staff.
The report emphasized that staff must park in local streets with time restrictions, complicating access to the hub for those commuting from various locations.
Recommendations made included reserving additional parking spaces for staff and addressing safety hazards, particularly in midwifery and mental health facilities, to improve overall service delivery.
Though the hub is described as bright and clean, issues such as lack of signage and insufficient facilities were noted, affecting patient experience and safety.
