About The Royal Liverpool University Hospital (RLUH)
** About the Royal Liverpool University Hospital **
The Royal Liverpool University Hospital (RLUH) was opened in 1978 and replaced several small city hospitals some of which had been established for over 150 years.
It currently has over 50 wards, more than 850 beds (excluding day case and dialysis beds) and has the main accident and emergency department for the city of Liverpool, the largest of its kind in the country.
The major acute services such as cardiology, respiratory care, general surgery and urology are based within the hospital, together with regional and national specialist services in nephrology, renal transplant, renal dialysis, ophthalmology, haematology, bone marrow transplant and vascular surgery. For a full list of all the services we provide please visit our services page.
Obstetrics, gynaecology, paediatrics, community and psychiatry services are provided by other specialist Trusts.
The hospital works closely with both Liverpool University and John Moores University to provide placements for student doctors, nurses, dentists and allied health professionals. Our aim is to provide quality undergraduate and postgraduate education and development in all disciplines and to continue to be recognised as a centre of excellence in biomedical, clinical and health service research.
Our research and development portfolio is one of the largest portfolios of clinical research in the North West with over 500 clinical research projects covering many disease areas including cancer, gastroenterology, oral health, stroke, ophthalmology, infection and pharmacology.
