History Of Royal Alexandra Children's Hospital
** History **
The Royal Alexandra Hospital for Sick Children – affectionately known as The Alex – was officially opened in 1881 by their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, but its history goes back further than that, to 1868 when the original Brighton children’s hospital opened in a private house in Western Road, Brighton.
In the ensuing years, the Alex became arguably Brighton’s best-loved hospital.
It has a long history of progressive and innovative paediatric care embracing medicine, nursing and related professions, paediatric nurse training and research.
In June 2007, the new hospital opened on the Royal Sussex County Hospital site -the state-of-the-art facility has won an international design award and continues with offering pioneering paediatric care.
It provides inpatient facilities, including intensive care and outpatient care, for children.
This site has a 24-hour emergency care service for children referred by GPs and other specialists.
