Hospital Clìnic Provincial de Barcelona
Please place here a short description !
The Hospital Clínic i Provincial de Barcelona is a university tertiary hospital located in Barcelona. It is a public institution with a sound reputation for excellence in care provision, training and research at national and international level.
Excellence in Care: HCPB is the main specialised provider covering an area of approximately 500.000 inhabitants. As a centre of reference, the institution plays a leadership role in the health care network already in place in this area, encompassing a mixture of public and private providers operating on a profit and non-profit basis. This confirms a challenging scenario that can virtually reproduce different models of interactions among health care providers. For the past years, this environment has been the focus of an intensive corporate strategy aiming at maximising cooperation among professionals, levels of care and institutions. As a result, research lines have been created to explore, develop, validate and implement information technologies to support new models of care provision.
Excellence in research: The research work carried out at HCPB covers most of the leading-edge research lines in Medicine, with a special emphasis on the applicability of the results into mainstream health services. This aspect is further reinforced by the basic research done in close collaboration with the School of Medicine and other top institutions at regional, national and international levels. This configures a constant policy of truly translational research “from bench to bedside”.
Excellence in training: The Hospital Clínic is a renowned centre for pre-graduate, post-graduate and specialisation courses with students coming from all over the world. Integrated in the principal networks of continuous medical education, the institution has proven to be highly successful in transferring research results and innovation into a corporative body of knowledge. Such an educational framework is backing the constant push towards a new and innovative curricula based on problem-oriented methods and with a strong emphasis on applied research and incorporation of information technologies. This model perfectly completes the circle linking care provision, research and training.
