The CHU Angers (Centre Hospitalier Universitaire d’Angers), a reference and call center in health issues, fulfills a quadruple mission: prevention, care, teaching and research.
Both a local care establishment and a referral and expertise center, it combines innovation and solidarity on a daily basis. With 8 centers and 60 clinical and biological services, the CHUs care offering covers all medical, surgical and biological specialties, including oncology. The most complex or rare specialties are supported by 51 reference, resource and skills centers.
Its patients are cared for by university hospital teams whose performance is supported by a cutting-edge technical platform.
As part of a Quality dynamic, the Angers University Hospital places patient service at the forefront; a concern for quality that it must maintain given that it is one of the leading healthcare operators in the region with about 210 000 patients per year and 1,751 beds and places.
Member of GCS -HUGO (Groupement de coordination sanitaire Hôpitaux Universitaires du Grand Ouest), the Angers University Hospital Center is also a research and higher education center.
Angers city’s leading employer – and one of the first in the Pays de la Loire region with its 6,800 employees – it also participates in the training of future healthcare professionals through that of doctors and caregivers. A position which makes the CHU a factor of social cohesion and one of the primary partners of other regional public and private health establishments.
