The borough falls within the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Board, with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust providing acute and specialist hospital services. Solihull's mix of prosperous suburban areas around Shirley and Dorridge and more urban wards around the town centre creates a varied landscape of residential, nursing, and specialist care provision.
