Jordan University Hospital (JUH) (Arabic: مستشفى الجامعة الأردنية) is a teaching hospital located on the University of Jordan campus, Amman, Jordan.

Established in 1973 as "The Great Amman Hospital" (Arabic: مستشفى عمان الكبير).[1] later affiliated with the University of Jordan in 1975 and renamed "Jordan University Hospital" (JUH), this institution has been a prominent fixture in Jordan's healthcare sector. Situated on Queen Rania Al Abdullah Street in the bustling Jubeiha area, JUH has expanded over the years to meet the increasing demand for patient care and medical education.[citation needed]

Being the first university teaching hospital in the country, JUH has obtained accreditation from the Joint Commission International (JCI).[2][3][4] Through collaboration with the University of Jordan and other reputable institutions, JUH offers an academic environment where students receive practical training across various health disciplines.[citation needed]
