Newcastle General Hospital (NGH) was for many years the main hospital for the city of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, and is managed by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The Accident and Emergency Department and Intensive Care closed on 16 November 2010. A walk-in centre for minor ailments and injuries remained on the site.〔(BBC Look North )〕 ==History== The General Hospital was originally constructed as the infirmary for the Newcastle Union Workhouse〔(www.workhouses.org.uk - The Workhouse Web Site )〕 in Newcastle upon Tyne. Building began in 1868 and it opened in 1870.〔http://www.workhouses.org.uk/NewcastleUponTyne/〕 In 1921 the administration of the Hospital was separated from the Workhouse and the name was changed to the Wingrove Hospital.〔http://apps.nationalarchives.gov.uk/hospitalrecords/details.asp?id=1268&page=41〕 In 1948 the name was changed to the Newcastle General Hospital when it became part of the National Health Service.〔"The History of Newcastle General Hospital" by George Hurrell, published by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospital Management Committee, 1967〕〔"Do the patients know they are in the workhouse", Margaret Young, North Magazine, February 1973 pp 26-27〕 The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust reorganised the way it provided acute and tertiary health care in the city 〔(Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust )〕 and most of the acute services at the Hospital were moved to the Royal Victoria Infirmary and the Freeman Hospital in 2008-10.
