The original Birmingham City Hospital was built around a plan devised by Florence Nightingale and offered patients the best possible care when it opened in the 19th century. Today, it has undergone extensive renovation and expansion and it still offers its patients a comprehensive range of care and treatment that is second to none. It is managed by the Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust which is based in West Bromwich, a district in greater Birmingham.
The facility offers patients a wide range of services including specialist care and general medicine. If you have a relative or friend who is being admitted to the City, why not take a look at some of the great establishments nearby? Choose a b&b or one of the hotels near the hospital and you’ll be able to visit more often. If you have a child who is being admitted for treatment, no matter how minor, it’s essential that they know that you’re close. Book a cheap b&b in West Bromwich or Dudley or look at properties in the city centre; you’ll contribute to a more speedy recovery and you’ll be on hand if they need clean clothing or fruit and drinks.
Two other major hospitals are Birmingham Heartlands and Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
The Dudley Road area is some distance from the city centre, and from New Street Station where patients from outwith the region arrive by intercity train. However, good public transport links such as buses and local trains make it easy to reach City from your b&b.
You’ll find cheap accommodation close to City in the West Bromwich area. Alternatively, select hotels or apartments in the city centre and enjoy a break in Birmingham at the same time. A meal in a restaurant, a shopping trip or a night at an event can often help to keep things feeling a little more normal. Even a short stay in the hospital can be expensive. Visiting or travelling to and from appointments from regions outside Birmingham is costly if you have to come by train. However, choose one of the many affordable hotels in the city and you’ll save money in the long term. Plus, with accommodation near City, you’ll be able to walk to the hospital or take cheap local buses.
