This is a list of hospitals in the Netherlands.

Most general hospitals provide broad care. Early 2024 there were 143 hospital locations for general care.[1]


There are also a number of specialised centers that provide the most specialised care to the entire country or a larger region. These include specialised children hospitals. With the exception of the Juliana Children Hospital in The Hague, all Dutch Children Hospitals are part of a University hospital. Other specialised centers are the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam, the national burn center associated with the Red Cross Hospital in Beverwijk, the Central Military Hospital, in Utrecht, and the national Major Incident Hospital (at University Medical Center Utrecht) consisting of a sleeping hospital with a capacity of 100 beds consisting of a mix of intensive, mid and low level care, surgery rooms etc. The Major Incident Hospital can be activated within 30 minutes.

The eight university hospitals offer the highest level of care available in the Netherlands.[2] Each of these hospitals offers specialized services such as neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, a high-level emergency department, advanced oncology, departments for infectious diseases, and other services such a nuclear medicine generally not found in other hospitals.

The university hospitals are involved in the teaching of medical doctors and other medical staff. Their teaching includes teaching at all levels from vocational nursing training through undergraduate medical school (bachelor level) to MSc and PhD levels in medicine.

A number of hospitals that deliver a broad spectrum of specialised care at high level contribute to training of healthcare professionals by offering internships as part of the later years of university medical doctor training and contribute to education programmes of other medical staff (e.g. nursing, laboratory technicians).[3]

Top Clinical Care hospitals

Several hospitals that provide broad care at the highest level, have organised themselves into an association of top hospitals.[4] Hospitals can apply for membership if they provide (at least) 12 different specialisations at top level and contribute to teaching
