History
Following the donation by Miss Frances Ellis of some property in Hayle to the Congregation of the Daughters of the Cross of Liege in 1904,[1] the Daughters of the Cross established a convent in The Downes, Miss Ellis's former manor house, and a hospital on an adjacent part of the site in 1913.[2]
After the Daughters of the Cross experienced some financial difficulties paying for the running of the hospital, the Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust acquired the hospital in November 2003.[3] The convent became The Downes Residential Care Home at the same time.[4]
Services
The hospital carries out approximately 5,000 operations each year and sees more than 17,000 outpatients each year.[3] Its specialisms are breast surgery and orthopaedic surgery.[5]
