** Arrowe Park Hospital **
Arrowe Park Hospital is a flagship hospital located in the heart of the Wirral peninsula. Here, as well as the full range of 'acute' health services for adults and children, we run an Accident & Emergency (A&E) unit, a Maternity Unit and a Walk-In Centre.
A new annexe houses our Fracture & Orthopaedic Clinic, which has its own dedicated X-ray suite and will treat up to 30,000 patients a year. The two upper floors contain a state of the art staff education centre.
A dedicated Children and Young Persons’ Unplanned Care Unit opened in November 2006. Youngsters requiring emergency or urgent care are treated here. It is based within the A & E department and is run jointly by A & E and the Children’s departments. The facility also includes an assessment unit for GP referrals. Here young patients see a specialist doctor or be observed before a decision is made on whether they should be admitted to our Children’s Ward.
