The Trust operates from three main hospital sites: Furness General Hospital in Barrow, Royal Lancaster Infirmary in Lancaster and Westmorland General Hospital in Kendal.

Furness General Hospital and the Royal Lancaster Infirmary have a range of 'General Hospital' services, with full Accident & Emergency Departments, Critical/Coronary Care units and Consultant led beds.  Westmorland General Hospital provides a range of General Hospital services, together with a Primary Care Assessment Service (PCAS) with GP led inpatient beds, operating by the Cumbria Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

All three sites provide a range of planned care, including outpatients, diagnostics, therapies, day-case and inpatient surgery. In addition a range of local outreach services and diagnostics are provided from a number of community facilities.

We also have two healthcare centres, Queen Victoria Hospital in Morecambe and Ulverston Community Health Centre.
