New Craigs Psychiatric Hospital

      New Craigs Psychiatric Hospital is a hospital situated in Leachkin, on the western outskirts of Inverness, Scotland.[1]

      New Craigs opened in July 2000, and replaced Craig Dunain Hospital and Craig Phadrig Hospital, which were both located nearby. The hospital was funded under a Private finance initiative scheme - it was built and managed by Robertson Group, with NHS Highland repaying for the cost over a 25 year contract. The total cost to NHS Highland is estimated at £106 million.[2][3]
