This hospital was built to replace the old Noble's Hospital, opened in 1912, which was located on Westmoreland Road in upper Douglas. The new hospital, located in Strang (Braddan) opened in July 2003. It was built to meet the needs of a growing and changing island. The new building accommodates 20 wards and has 314 beds.
