Sandwell Hospital in West Bromwich, England is also known as Sandwell General Hospital and was called Hallam Hospital.
Hallam Hospital in Hallam Street originated as an infirmary added to the West Bromwich union workhouse in 1884. Improvements were begun in 1925, when the infirmary then became a separate institution named Hallam Hospital. After the creation of the National Health Service and rebuilding in the 1970s, the Hospital was renamed Sandwell General Hospital. The hospital includes surviving buildings of the former workhouse as well as more recent buildings.
The Hospital is part of Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust and coupling this with its partner hospital at City Hospital, Birmingham, has one of the oldest building stocks of any hospital group in England. A major rebuilding project is planned.
