The Children's Outpatient Department is a dedicated clinic for children and young people where they can be seen by paediatricians (children's specialists), neonatologists (baby specialists), consultants and other specialities with the Trust. In addition, specialist consultants visit from Manchester and Liverpool to undertake clinics locally.
There are Children’s Outpatient Departments located at Burnley General Teaching Hospital and Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital, together with which clinics are also undertaken at the Accrington Acorn Centre, Rossendale Primary Care Centre, Pendle Community Hospital and Colne Health Centre.
Appointments are normally sent by letter, with text reminders following nearer the date of the appointment. The reception staff will confirm your appointment on arrival and check that your details are up to date. We have a waiting area with toys and activities available.
Children are referred by GPs via the e-referral system.
