The name of a new facility for people suffering from mental health problems has been revealed.
More than 150 patients, staff and members of the public took part in naming the £42million building at Kingsley Green in Radlett, formerly known as Harperbury Hospital.
After a long period of consultation, Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust has chosen the name Kingfisher Court.
Patients said they did not want a name that was associated with mental problems, and are hoping the one they have chosen will mean a break from stigma.
Set in 11 acres of land, the two-acre building site consists of a north block, which is set to be open for admissions in May, and a south block, which should be up and running by June.
It will provide acute adult mental health care, care for physical frailty as well as mental ill-health and assessment, and treatment for people with learning disabilities.
