The Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital or RACH is a children's hospital in Aberdeen (Scotland), United Kingdom. It is situated on the Foresterhill site, with the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary and Aberdeen Maternity Hospital. The hospital provides a comprehensive service of paediatric specialties to Grampian, Highlands and Islands and Tayside.
In 2012 the hospital revised their policy around the age of patients who could be admitted for care, raising the limit from 14 to 16 years of age.[1]
The original RACH was built in 1929, and was replaced in 2004 by a modern hospital.
