The National University Hospital (NUH) is a specialist hospital that provides advanced, leading-edge medical care. Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities as well as dedicated and well-trained staff, NUH is a major referral centre that delivers tertiary care for a wide range of medical specialties including Cardiology, Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Paediatrics and Orthopaedic Surgery.

Backed by substantive expertise and experience, NUH has been chosen by the Ministry of Health to develop two new national specialist centres to meet the growing need for heart and cancer treatments.

The coming together of NUH and the National University of Singapore's Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and Faculty of Dentistry under the joint entity, National University Health System (NUHS), boosts its international standing as a university hospital. This further sharpens its three-prong focus of excellence in medical care, clinical research and education to meet the healthcare needs of today and tomorrow.

In 2004, NUH became the first Singapore hospital to receive Joint Commission International (JCI) Accreditation, an international stamp for excellent clinical practices in patient care and safety. It was also the first hospital in Singapore to receive a triple ISO certification concurrently for Quality, Environmental, and Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems in 2002.

NUH Logo
The stylised cross in the outline of a man signifies healthcare and our emphasis of caring for the whole person. The completeness of the icon also represents the synergy and cohesiveness of the NUH family as we work together to provide holistic, quality, seamless and integrated care.

The navy blue colour depicts stability, sincerity, and compassion. The choice of this brighter shade of blue reflects a more contemporary image of the hospital coupled with a renewed mindset to meet the increasing challenges of a new millennium.

The lighter colour tone of blue for the "head" of the icon signifies putting 'Patients First' in whatever we do. This is supported by the solid darker tone of blue for the 'body', representing our strong commitment to deliver quality patient care to meet our patients' needs.

The rounder typeface (Century Gothic Bold) seeks to bring across the "humble, warm and friendly" face of the hospital.
