The Hospital Wing[1] is a part of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It was run by Madam Poppy Pomfrey, the school's matron, from at least 1971.

The students and staff who suffer mishaps and injuries during the school year, are sent or brought to the hospital wing for treatment. Poppy would prefer there be six visitors at one time for one person.[2] There is a room adjacent belonging to the matron.[3]

The hospital wing is well equipped to deal with all kinds of magical and mundane injuries, from broken limbs to regrowing lost bones.[4] Only in the most severe cases are the patients sent to St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for further treatment, such as when Katie Bell touched a cursed Opal Necklace in 1996.[5]

Overview

The hospital wing in 1992

Located on the first floor, and later one or two floors up, the hospital wing is where Hogwarts residents go to have their medical needs met. Within the hospital wing are many rows of beds with white sheets, privacy screens, and bedpans, which Ronald Weasley once had to scrub as the result of a detention. The entrance has double doors. Madam Pomfrey’s office is part of the hospital wing complex.
