IRCCS Humanitas

Humanitas: Hospital, Research and University

Humanitas is a highly-specialised hospital, research, and teaching center, which hosts Humanitas University, an academic institute dedicated to medical sciences.
Built around centers for the prevention and treatment of cancer, cardiovascular, neurological, autoimmune, inflammatory, and orthopoedic diseases – together with an Ophthalmic Center and a Fertility Center – Humanitas also operates a highly specialised Emergency Department.

The first Italian hospital quality-certified by Joint Commission International (in 2018 as Academic Hospital), Humanitas is accredited by Italy’s National Health Service.
Appointed as an IRCCS by the Ministry of Health (an accreditation in the Italian system that acknowledges institutions focused on excellence in clinical care and research), Humanitas is a high profile, internationally well known center of excellence for immune system-related diseases, from cancer to rheumatoid arthritis.

Humanitas Research Hospital is the flagship of a hospital group also present in Milan, Bergamo, Turin, Catania and Castellanza (Varese). Humanitas promotes health, prevention, and early diagnosis, by means of innovative and advanced outpatient healthcare facilities: Humanitas is on the ground also with several diagnostic centers, the largest of which is located in Arese, at the “Centre”.
