Cleveland Clinic, Medical center in Cleveland, United States
Cleveland Clinic is a medical center in Cleveland, Ohio, with many buildings that house different departments and specialties. The complex covers a large area and includes hospital beds, research laboratories, and rooms for outpatient care.
Four doctors founded the facility after World War I with the goal of promoting teamwork in medicine. Over the following decades, it grew steadily and gradually opened additional locations beyond Ohio.
The facility treats patients from around the world every day and welcomes people from many different backgrounds into its buildings. Medical students and residents train here throughout their education, so visitors often see young doctors in white coats walking through the halls.
Visitors will find parking areas around the different buildings, and many entrances are designed for easy access. First-time visitors should allow extra time to navigate the large campus.
The facility has its own power plant that generates energy for all the buildings and keeps operations running even during power outages. The campus also features a large underground tunnel system that allows staff and supplies to move between buildings without going outside.
