===Healthcare=== Staines Cottage Hospital was opened on 19 May 1914 on the corner of Kingston Road and Worple Road. It was renamed Staines Hospital in 1933, but its importance decreased following the opening of Ashford Hospital in 1939. During the 1960s, the men's wards were shut and it became a hospital for female patients only. It closed in the early 1980s and the buildings were demolished in 1986. The Kingscroft respite service for adults with learning difficulties opened on the site in 1987.<ref>{{harvnb|Mansfield|1992|pp=42β43}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last= Nicholson |first= Louise |year= 2018 |title= Kingscroft |url= https://www.sabp.nhs.uk/our-services/learning-disabilities/short-break-services/kingscroft/kingscroftSrvc |publisher= NHS Surrey and Borders partnership |access-date= 12 May 2022 |archive-date= 19 April 2022 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20220419222638/https://www.sabp.nhs.uk/our-services/learning-disabilities/short-break-services/kingscroft/kingscroftSrvc |url-status= live }}</ref> The nearest hospital with an [[Emergency department|A&E]] is [[St Peter's Hospital, Chertsey|St Peter's Hospital]], {{cvt|3.9|mi|km|sigfig=2 }} from Staines-upon-Thames.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/hospital/results/Staines-upon-Thames?latitude=51.43381575919423&longitude=-0.5118381601237011 |title= Hospitals near Staines-upon-Thames |author= <!--Not stated--> |publisher= National Health Service |access-date= 23 August 2021 |archive-date= 19 May 2022 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20220519211443/https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/hospital/results/Staines-upon-Thames?latitude=51.43381575919423&longitude=-0.5118381601237011 |url-status= live }}</ref> As of 2022, the town has GP practices at Burgess Way, Knowle Green and on Rochester Road.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/find-a-gp/results/Staines-upon-Thames?latitude=51.43381575919423&longitude=-0.5118381601237011 |title= GPs near Staines-upon-Thames |author= <!--Not stated--> |publisher= National Health Service |access-date= 12 May 2022 |archive-date= 19 May 2022 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20220519211444/https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/find-a-gp/results/Staines-upon-Thames?latitude=51.43381575919423&longitude=-0.5118381601237011 |url-status= live }}</ref>
