Each of our three hospitals can see and treat children with minor illnesses, injuries or those with outpatient appointments who do not need an overnight stay.
Children who have a life-threatening condition, need to stay overnight in hospital or need to see a specialist paediatrician, will have their care delivered at the Worcestershire Royal Hospital. They will be seen and assessed by expert paediatric teams, with those requiring an overnight stay admitted to the dedicated 35 bed children’s ward at Worcestershire Royal.
