Auckland City Hospital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Auckland City Hospital is Auckland, New Zealand's main hospital. It is run by the Auckland District Health Board.
The hospital is a research and teaching facility as well, providing training for future doctors, nurses, midwives and other health professionals. Rare or complex medical conditions from all over New Zealand may get referred here.
The hospital is situated in a building opened in 2003. It is nine levels high, five levels lower than the older part of the hospital, which has now become the support building. At around 80,000 m², the new structure is one of New Zealand's largest public buildings. The new hospital building was designed by Jasmax and built by Fletcher Construction. [1]
The hopital is closely associated with the Starship Children's Health, another major facility on the same grounds, located just to the northwest of the City Hospital.
