**Victoria Infirmary** is a small [hospital](/source/Hospital) located in the town of [Northwich](/source/Northwich), [Cheshire](/source/Cheshire), [England](/source/England). It is managed by the [Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust](/source/Mid_Cheshire_Hospitals_NHS_Foundation_Trust).

## History

The Infirmary originally opened in 1887 when a local [MP](/source/Member_of_Parliament), [Robert Verdin](/source/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](/source/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](/source/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](/source/CT_scan) department, newly constructed in 2022.[3]
