Hospitals
Lambeth is within the catchment areas of two hospital groups,
the Lambeth and Camberwell Groups. These in turn are administered
by two different Regional Hospital Boards, The South West
Metropolitan and South East Metropolitan respectively. The areas
served by the two hospital groups extend beyond the Borough
boundaries. The Lambeth Group has premises outside the Borough
whilst the Camberwell Group has none within it.

of the National Health Service there are two teaching hospitals
in the Borough, King's College Hospital and St.'Thomas's Hospital
