Shortland Street Hospital (in Māori Hohipera o Hoterini Tiriti) is a fictional hospital which is the main setting for the TVNZ soap opera Shortland Street. The hospital is based in the fictional Auckland City suburb of Ferndale.
The hospital is where most of Shortland Street's action takes place.
History
Shortland Street Hospital has changed over the times to reflect changes in the New Zealand health system.
When Shortland Street commenced, the hospital was known as the Shortland Street Medical Centre and was referred to as being an accident and emergency clinic. In 2000, the clinic's location was shifted after the original clinic succumbed to liquefaction. The new location was much larger than the original and in 2001 it became a public hospital. It received another upgrade in 2007, becoming the new-look hospital it is now.
