Red de Salud UC CHRISTUS

UC CHRISTUS is a healthcare network rather than a single hospital building. Its Santiago services include Hospital Clínico and Clínica San Carlos de Apoquindo, with outpatient facilities, specialist care and an institutional clinical research center.

The network's own activity reports distinguish Hospital Clínico from Clínica San Carlos de Apoquindo and from the total UC CHRISTUS organization. This distinction matters because a hospital-specific bed count is not a network-wide capacity figure. The Hospital Clínico anniversary account published in 2023 describes the growth from its early institution into a high-complexity hospital, with surgical and procedural rooms, intensive and intermediate care, and services across several age groups.

The official floor-by-floor hospital guide places radiology, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, PET-CT, magnetic resonance and computed tomography among the diagnostic services. It separately identifies general emergency care and maternity emergency care, delivery and pre-delivery areas, neonatal intensive treatment and the perioperative unit. Endovascular treatment and procedure facilities appear alongside maternity and neonatal intermediate care. Other floors contain operating rooms, postoperative recovery, medical and surgical wards, intensive-care units and intermediate-care accommodation.

The institution's account of its clinical development names minimally invasive, endoscopic, endovascular, robotic, cardiovascular and neurosurgical procedures. It also describes solid-organ transplantation, oncology for different age groups, maternal-fetal medicine and neonatal care. These are published components of the hospital's clinical scope. They do not mean that all procedures belong to one package or that every patient is eligible for each listed intervention.

Patient and family services are included in the hospital guide rather than left implicit. The directory identifies admissions, information and budgeting, guidance concerning Chilean emergency-care and coverage arrangements, and a patient-and-family support unit. The same guide lists cafeterias, places for religious observance and practical facilities within the hospital. Teaching and clinical research belong to the university-healthcare setting, with the institutional clinical research center described separately from routine admission and outpatient booking.

The hospital guide also identifies practical services inside the complex, including cafeterias in Hospital Clínico and Clínica UC, a cash machine and a gift shop. These facilities have their own locations within the published floor guide, alongside clinical wards and patient-and-family services.

The institution reports the following clinical and infrastructure information: outpatient care: Yes; inpatient beds: 420 (Hospital Clínico only, published in 2023; not the entire network.); intensive care / resuscitation: Yes. The scope and reporting period remain those of the linked institutional sources.

The UC CHRISTUS Clinical Research Center provides information about clinical studies and a pathway for patients to express interest in participation. Its official portal organizes study information by condition and specialty and identifies facilities in central Santiago and San Carlos de Apoquindo.
