Victoria Infirmary is a small hospital located in the town of Northwich, Cheshire, England. It is managed by the Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
History
The Infirmary originally opened in 1887 when a local MP, Robert Verdin, donated the building for use as a hospital.[1] Extensions included a new wing in 1902, a children's ward in 1924 and further additions in the 1930s.[1] After joining the National Health Service in 1948, it became the Victoria Infirmary and Clinic in 1950 and reverted to the Victoria Infirmary in 1975.[1]
Services
The hospital benefits from dedicated support services, a minor injuries unit (open between 9 am and 10 pm), a therapy services department and many outpatient services.[2] These services are supported by an outpatient CT scanner department, newly constructed in 2022.[3]
