The antenatal clinic for is run from three separate sites:
Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital
Burnley General Teaching Hospital
Rossendale Primary Health Care Hub
The site you attend will depend on two main factors
- Which area of East Lancashire you live in
- If there are any additional pregnancy needs for your 12 week and/or your 20 week scans
You will be seen by a midwife after your 12 week scan to ensure you have all relevant appointments booked.
You will be placed on a pathway of care depending on your needs which will be either midwifery-led care, whereby you will only need to attend for the two scans, or consultant-led care where you may be asked to attend for several appointments.
