Healthcare
The main NHS hospital serving the borough is Russells Hall Hospital, situated to the south of Dudley town. Following a major expansion of the hospital in 2005, all inpatient services were transferred to the site from smaller hospitals around the borough, resulting in the closure of Wordsley Hospital, and the downgrading of the Dudley Guest and Corbett hospitals into outpatient centres.
Psychiatric care is offered at the Bushey Fields Hospital, located adjacent to Russells Hall Hospital.
