About

Morriston is one of the largest hospitals in Wales.

It is the regional acute tertiary hospital for South West Wales, offering a range of specialist services, including trauma and orthopaedics, renal medicine, neurology, oral and maxillofacial surgery and it hosts the regional cleft lip and palate service for children and adults.

It offers one of two cardiac centres in Wales and is home to the Welsh Centre for Burns and Plastic Surgery, and also the bariatric (obesity service) for Wales. It has a modern intensive care unit.

Morriston has one of the busiest emergency departments (A&E) in Wales. Swansea Bay hosts the Emergency Medical Retrieval and Transfer Service Cymru (EMRTS), otherwise known as the Flying Doctors, and the service works closely with Morriston Hospital.

It also provides acute medical beds and a wide range of surgical and urological services, children's wards and a children's high dependency unit. It has a full range of high quality diagnostic and therapeutic services, and outpatient services.

Over the past few years Morriston has been undergoing a £100m-plus redevelopment with new buildings replacing pre-war estate. Most recently it has undergone a major investment with the building of the new Acute Medical Unit.
