The hospital is situated on that portion of the right bank of the Thames called the Albert Embankment. It is a very spacious building, or series of buildings, capable of accommodating about 600 patients. On an average, there are about 5,000 in-patients and 80,000 out-patients treated annually. It occupies a site nearly 600 feet in length, and was opened the Queen in 1871. In cases of accident patients are admitted at any hour; ordinary out-patients are seen at 12.45 daily, and those who are to remain in the hospital are admitted at 12. The arrangements of the hospital are admirable, and there is a large and efficient staff of physicians, surgeons and nurses. Visitors are admitted on Sundays and Wednesdays from 3 p.m. to 4.30 p.m.
