The hospital has its origins in a sanatorium created at Oakwood Hall for soldiers gassed in the trenches.[1] A modern hospital was built on the Oakwood Hall estate between 1972 and 1978.[1] The special care baby unit, which had been located at Doncaster Gate Hospital, was transferred to Rotherham General Hospital in 1984.[1]
The hospital was featured in Can Gerry Robinson Fix the NHS? an Open University BBC series shown on BBC2 in January 2007.[2] An updated urgent and emergency care centre was opened in 2017.[1]
