Top teaching hospitals by number of beds
Teaching hospitals are at the heart of graduate medical education. As the final phase of training for those who have successfully completed medical school, a teaching hospital offers future doctors the opportunity to learn and practice healthcare in a hospital setting.
These facilities also have an important place within the broader healthcare ecosystem. Teaching hospitals have access to cutting-edge equipment and specialists usually not available anywhere else in the community.

What is a teaching hospital?
A teaching hospital is a hospital that partners with a medical school to teach and train the next generation of physicians, nurses, therapists and other healthcare professionals. Like their traditional counterparts, teaching hospitals also support their communities with healthcare services including routine and emergency medical care, surgeries, rehabilitation, and more.
Teaching hospitals also dedicate considerable resources to furthering medical and clinical research. As a result, many teaching hospitals attract highly qualified specialists and are often capable of offering unique care for complex illnesses and injuries not available anywhere else in the region.
