St Helier Hospital (full title: ''St Helier Hospital and Queen Mary's Hospital for Children'') in the London Borough of Merton and London Borough of Sutton is run by Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust along with Epsom Hospital. It is located next to the large St Helier council estate and close to the major intersection known as Rosehill. The hospital offers a full range of hospital services including a 24-hour accident and emergency department. The site is also home to the South West Renal and Transplantation Service and the Queen Mary's Hospital for Children, a dedicated children's hospital. St Helier Hospital is a major teaching hospital for St George's, University of London, and is the second main teaching site for the clinical years of the medicine degrees outside of St George's Hospital. As part of the Better Services Better Value Review of NHS services in London it was proposed to downgrade the maternity and Accident and Emergency Departments. However, it appeared in December 2013 that at least some local GPs were not in favour of this. ==Description of the site== The site is located on the B278 (Wrythe Lane) opposite St Helier Open Space. It is approximately 2 miles from Sutton, 5 miles from Croydon and 10 miles from Central London. It is close to the Rose Hill Roundabout which is the junction for the A217 and A297. The main entrance leads into B block (see below). Just to the right of the main entrance is the entrance to the accident and emergency department. St Helier Hospital comprises 6 buildings, all of which are accessible from the outside of the hospital (as each has its own entrance) as well as via link corridors via the main building. The main building is divided into three blocks: A, B and C. The names of the wards and operating theatres are based on their location in the hospital - a ward located on, say, the fifth floor of B block is labelled B5 ward. The other buildings are: * The pathology block (labelled D) which also contains the genitourinary medicine clinic. * The Women's Health Block (which contains the maternity and gynaecology wards, gynaecology clinics and delivery suite). * The renal block * Queen Mary's Hospital for Children * Ferguson House (contains some outpatient clinics, administration departments and undergraduate teaching suite). The Women's Health Block, Renal Unit and Queen Mary's are connected to the main building via an underground tunnel from the Ground Floor of B block. D block is connected via the first floor of C block and Ferguson House via the first floor of A block (although the link is on the Ground Floor of Ferguson House - there is a ramp down from the main hospital to Ferguson House). 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「St Helier Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
