The Royal Surrey County Hospital (RSCH) is a 520-bed District General Hospital, located on the fringe of Guildford, run by the Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust serving a population of 320,000 for general services and 1,200,000 for cancer services. The Royal Surrey is also a specialist centre for diabetes, ENT and maxillo facial surgery.〔(Royal Surrey County Hospital Website-Homepage )〕 It is situated close to the University of Surrey allowing it to offer opportunities for research and pioneering treatments such as fibroid embolisation, brachytherapy and minimal access surgery.〔 The Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford became one of the first NHS Trusts in 1991. It treats over 260,000 patients a year - 56,000 Accident and Emergency, 39,000 in-patients and day-patients and 167,000 outpatients. The Trust's annual income to run its services is £199 million.〔(Royal Surrey County Hospital Website-About Us )〕 It employed 3,556 staff in 2014, of which 542 were doctors, and 1,088 nurses and midwives. There are also therapists, scientific and technical and support staff. The Trust has 20 wards comprising general and specialist surgery, obstetrics, paediatrics, oncology, orthopaedics, general and specialist medicine, intensive care and coronary care, with 527 beds in total. There are 12 dedicated surgical theatres, one obstetric and one minor operations theatre and state of the art outpatient, audiology and rehabilitation departments.〔 From October 2006 to October 2007 a successful campaign was fought to save the hospital, along with St Luke's Cancer Centre, from closure. The campaign attracted the support of over 100,000 local people through petitions, protests, publicity and lobbying at a local and national level. In May 2014 it was reported that the Trust was proposing to merge with Ashford and St Peter's Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. It was named by the Health Service Journal as one of the top hundred NHS trusts to work for in 2015. At that time it had 3141 full time equivalent staff and a sickness absence rate of 3.08%. 72% of staff recommend it as a place for treatment and 65% recommended it as a place to work. ==See also== * List of hospitals in England * List of NHS trusts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Royal Surrey County Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
