The Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH) is a 360-bed Australian teaching hospital located in Tiwi, a northern suburb of Darwin, Northern Territory. It is part of the Top End Health Service, which covers an area of 475,338 km2 (183,529 sq mi). RDH is the only tertiary referral hospital in the Northern Territory, also providing complex, high-level clinical services for patients in parts of Western Australia and Southeast Asia.[1] Following the 2002 Bali bombings, the National Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre was established by the Australian Government, bolstering Royal Darwin Hospital's capacity to respond to trauma and support deployed medical assistance teams during crises and medical emergencies in the Asia-Pacific.[2]
It is the main teaching hospital for Charles Darwin University's School of Medicine and is also home to a campus of Flinders University. The Menzies School of Health Research, established in partnership with the University of Sydney, is headquartered at the hospital. This school maintains research facilities and provides opportunities for post-graduate studies specialising in Aboriginal health and tropical medicine at Royal Darwin Hospital.[3] The Palmerston Regional Hospital operates as a campus of RDH for treatment of sub-acute conditions and rehabilitation, with staff shared between the two hospitals.
