Central Middlesex hospital (CMH) is in the centre of the Park Royal business estate, on the border of two London boroughs, Brent and Ealing.
CMH is a teaching hospital of Imperial College School of Medicine and part of the London North West Healthcare NHS Trust. This trust incorporates Northwick Park and St Mark's Hospitals in Harrow, Central Middlesex Hospital in Park Royal and outreach services based close to the local communities in Wembley, Willesden, Stanmore and Harlesden.
There are 214 beds on site in general medicine, general surgery, urology including orthopaedics, ENT, ophthalmology, oral surgery, obstetrics, gynaecology, cardiology and gastroenterology. The hospital has particular experience in the care of patients with conditions aggravated by deprivation, specifically TB, diabetes and coronary heart disease, and is a leader in the research and treatment of sickle-cell disease.
CMH has recently been rebuilt, using the proceeds of land sales and a PFI project. The old buildings were demolished, to be replaced by modern and accessible new ones, including the ACAD Centre (1999) and main building (2006). Much of the original site has been sold for complementary mixed-use redevelopment, including residential accommodation.
Keith Moon and Nicky Hopkins were born at the hospital.
The hospital featured in the film 28 Days Later, with the protagonist Jim waking up in a deserted ACAD Centre.
The £62.5 million Brent Emergency Care and Diagnostic Centre (BECaD) at Central Middlesex Hospital, Park Royal, London, was completed in March 2007. The scheme was designed by HLM Architects in association with Avanti Architects and constructed by Bouygues (UK) through the PFI form of procurement.
