a mixture of quarter half and full circles

Iris Care Group operates three specialist hospitals in South Wales, delivering evidence-based, person-centred care for complex conditions – Heatherwood Court Hospital, Pinetree Court Hospital, and St Peter’s Hospital

Our services are clinically led and delivered by expert in-house multidisciplinary teams, with a focus on purposeful, time-limited admissions that enable sustainable discharge into the community.

Our services specialise in:

  • Autistic Spectrum Conditions
  • Learning Disabilities
  • Mental Health Conditions
  • Neurological and Neurodegenerative Conditions
  • Acquired Brain Injury
  • Forensic Histories

We are also able to support individuals subject to ongoing Mental Health Act management by allocating an Iris Care Group Approved Clinician to act as Responsible Clinician.

Our dedicated care and treatment pathways are psychologically informed, and care and treatment plans are co-produced with the people we support and their wider circles of support, enabling person-centred, outcome-focused planning from admission and timely discharge planning.

Our hospitals are regulated by the Quality Assurance Improvement Service (QAIS) and Health Inspectorate Wales (HIW), and we are committed to delivering safe, effective, and quality care. Each of our specialist hospitals is supported by a dedicated in-house Quality team and robust clinical governance processes, embedding quality, safety, and transparency into everything we do.

Pinetree Hospital, Vocational Placement, Risca United FC

“My son came under Pinetrees auspices after spending three mostly unhappy years at his previous hospital. He appeared to flourish both psychologically and physically whilst at Pinetree though, and this was particularly evident in the way the transition from Pinetree to his new home went so well. Thanks to all the staff at Pinetree for the excellent care and attention given not just to him, but also to his family.”

Pinetree Hospital, Patients Parent

“This was the first CPA that I have attended at St Peter’s and I was very impressed by the overall communication by the team to both the relatives and myself.”

St Peter’s Hospital, Service Commissioner

“I am so grateful to Pinetree for having me back from a medium secure hospital and giving me the opportunity to progress the plan is for me to move in to the community and I couldn’t have done this without the support and help of PTC.”
