Ramsey Cottage Hospital

Ramsey Cottage Hospital is a small hospital in Ramsey, Isle of Man.

Before the establishment of the Manx Health Service in 1948 it was a voluntary hospital. Medical care was provided, apart from specialist services, by the local general practitioners and paid for by a beddage fund. At that time it had a modern and well-equipped operating theatre and in the year to October 1947, 203 operations were performed.[1]

There was a Maternity Home in Ramsey, in Brookhill Road, which closed in 1947.
