Off By Ed Hanna

The RNOH, the largest specialist orthopaedic hospital in the UK, and a recognised world leader in the field of orthopaedics, treats more than 125,000 neuro-musculoskeletal patients a year for conditions ranging from acute spinal injuries, bone cancer and prosthetic rehabilitation to chronic back pain and joint reconstruction. The century-old RNOH is undergoing a major redevelopment of its site in Stanmore, Middlesex.

The RNOH new five-storey Stanmore Building opens in December 2018 and will provide 91 beds, 50% of which will be in single rooms, greatly enhancing patient privacy and helping reduce risk of cross-infection. Our redevelopment project includes: Improving access for all patients, provision of children activity centre and coffee shop at the main entrance of the hospital.

Patients at the RNOH benefit from a team of highly specialised consultants, many of whom are nationally and internationally recognised for their expertise and experience. There are highly trained qualified Nurses, Therapist and other specialist clinical staff that enormously contribute to managing patients and delivery of expert care

The hospital continues to play a major role in teaching with one in five orthopaedic surgeons in the UK training at the hospital and continues the tradition of leading edge and innovative research and development through the Institute of Orthopaedics and Musculoskeletal Science.
