Cygnet was established in 1988, with the opening of Tupwood Gate and Tabley House Nursing Homes. The following year we opened our first mental health hospitals; Cygnet Hospital Harrogate and Cygnet Hospital Godden Green. Over the years, the company then grew the specialist mental health division, hospital by hospital, developing new facilities organically.
In 2014 we announced our acquisition by Universal Health Services Inc., one of the largest and most respected healthcare providers in the USA, who share our vision and desire to provide the highest quality patient care. Since then, we have grown further, following the acquisitions of Orchard Portman, the Alpha Hospitals Group and culminating in this year’s integration with CAS Behavioural Health (formerly the Adult Services Division of the Cambian Group).
Today our expert and highly dedicated teams support and care for 2,200 individuals across more than 110 services, aligned to 11 distinct service lines. Building on 30 years of providing the highest quality specialist mental health and residential services, we have developed a reputation for prioritising the outcomes of those in our care, something that has been used as the foundation for our clinical vision to this day:
Our Clinical Vision
Cygnet Health Care’s aim is to provide the highest quality care to our Patients and Residents at all times, regardless of where they are in their care pathway.
We are committed to providing the highest quality and most effective care possible.
We aim to achieve this through our highly trained and motivated staff working in partnership with Patients, Residents, their friends and relatives, our Commissioners, and Regulatory Bodies.
We look forward to covering the celebrations later in the year, and hope you will join us in commemorating 30 years of excellence.
