[4]

History

Origins

The hospitals which now form part of UCLH or which contributed to its development were all originally established as charities which relied on public donations and subscriptions for their income. The oldest of these was the Middlesex Hospital, which was founded in 1745 and was one of the five voluntary general hospitals which were established in London during the 18th century (the others being Westminster Hospital (1719), Guy's Hospital (1721), St George's Hospital (1733), and the Royal London Hospital (1740). [5]

20th century

In 1948 the National Health Service was established, making most hospitals in the UK directly controlled by the public sector and funded by public taxation. Hospitals were grouped together into regional hospital management committees or teaching hospital groups. Following major NHS reforms UCL Hospitals NHS Trust was established in 1994, comprising the Middlesex Hospital, the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital, the Hospital for Tropical Diseases and University College Hospital. [5] In 1996 The Eastman Dental Hospital and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery joined the UCLH NHS Trust.

2000 to 2010

In August 2001 the private Heart Hospital was acquired by UCLH and became the new home for all of the Trust's cardiac services, which had previously been housed in the Middlesex Hospital. [5] In 2002 the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital joined UCLH and in July 2004 UCLH was one of the first NHS trusts to be granted foundation trust status. [5]

In 2005 the new University College Hospital building was opened and all activities from the Middlesex Hospital were moved into the new building. [6] The Middlesex Hospital was closed in December 2005 and the site sold to developers.

In November 2009 the University College Hospital Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Wing was opened and most activities from the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital were moved into the new building. [7]

In April 2007 the Trust formed the UCLH/UCL National Institute for Health Research Comprehensive Biomedical Research Centre in partnership with UCL and the National Institute for Health and Care Research. [8]

In August 2008 the Trust announced its intention to form the UCL Partners academic health science centre with UCL, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust, Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Royal Free Hampstead NHS Trust. [9]

In February 2009 Professor Sir Cyril Chantler was appointed as the first Chair of UCL Partners and it was officially designated as an academic health science centre by the UK Department of Health in March 2009. [9]

2010 to present

In April 2012 it was announced that UCLH had been selected by the UK Government as one of two sites in England for the provision of Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) (the other being the Christie Hospital in Manchester). [10] In 2015 the Trust began construction of a new clinical facility adjacent to University College Hospital to house the PBT facilities, and to also contain Europe’s largest haematological inpatient service and a short stay surgical centre. [11] The facility is planned to open in 2019. [12]

The Trust opened the UCH Macmillan Cancer Centre in April 2012. [13] [14]

In 2013 the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health was opened on Tottenham Court Road; the Institute is a partnership between the Trust, UCL, the British Olympic Association, the English Institute of Sport, and the HCA private hospital group. [15]

In 2015, UCLH completed the transfer of cardiac services to Barts Health NHS Trust, with services moving to the new purpose built Bart's Heart Center. [16] The Heart Hospital was renamed University College Hospital at Westmoreland Street and refurbished to provide thoracic and urology services including operation theaters, lithotripsy and cystoscopy. [17]

In August 2016 a partnership between the trust and Google's artificial intelligence division, DeepMind, was announced, as part of which anonymised CT and MRI scans from former University College Hospital radiotherapy patients will be utilised to help develop an algorithm that can automatically differentiate between healthy and cancerous tissues. [18] [19]

In October 2019 services from the Eastman Dental Hospital and the Royal National Throat Nose and Ear Hospital moved to a new facility, the Royal National ENT and Eastman Dental Hospitals on Huntley Street, WC1E 6DG. The Eastman Dental Hospital site closed to patients. The Royal National Throat Nose and Ear Hospital on Gray's Inn Road remains open for wards, theatres, sleep diagnostics and allergy day case services.

The trust was rated 'worse than expected' over care for women giving birth. [20]
