University Hospital Ayr is a General Hospital on the outskirts of Ayr, Scotland. It is operated by NHS Ayrshire and Arran and covers a catchment area of approximately 100,000 people including the towns of Ayr, Prestwick, Troon, Girvan and Maybole in South Ayrshire. It has 333 beds〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Key facts about NHS Ayrshire & Arran )〕 and provides a number of services including Vascular Surgery, Ophthalmology and Audiology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=University Hospital Ayr )〕 == History == The Ayr Hospital opened in 1991 following the closure of three Ayr hospitals: Heathfield (medical), Seafield (paediatric) and Ayr County (surgical). The Hospital was built next to the psychiatric hospital, Ailsa Hospital. While in the planning stages, it had been referred to as the "South Ayrshire District General Hospital" but this name was abandoned after its counterpart in the North of the county, which opened 10 years earlier, came to be referred to as "Nadge" until it took on the name of its locality (Crosshouse). It was called Ayr Hospital until March 2012 when the board decided to change the name to University Hospital Ayr, as a result of a partnership with the University of the West of Scotland. The hospital has come under public spotlight after the A&E was due to close and services transferred to Crosshouse Hospital in Kilmarnock. The SNP government did not allow the planned closure to go ahead, a decision welcomed by most. This has led to cuts being made in other areas of health in Ayrshire. Ayr also has a Doctor On Call Service which is run from Kilmarnock, University Hospital Crosshouse. 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「University Hospital Ayr」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
