The Northumbria hospital also has a birthing centre with midwifery and consultant-led care. It has en-suite delivery rooms, two birthing pools and en-suite bedrooms where partners are able to stay overnight.

Some planned surgery which is considered to be high-risk is also carried out at the Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital as patients will be surrounded by relevant experts and support services such as critical care which may be needed in an emergency.

The Northumbria hospital has:

• A state-of-the art emergency department with individual treatment rooms
• Diagnostics including x-ray, MRI, ultrasound and CT scanners, endoscopy room and cardiac catheter lab – all located close to the emergency department for quick test results, enabling treatment to start earlier
• A critical care unit
• Beds for emergency admissions across seven specialty wards – surgery, trauma, cardiology, respiratory, stroke, gastrointestinal and an acute medical unit
• A short-stay paediatric unit with paediatric ambulatory care
• Ambulatory care for the rapid assessment of patients with specific conditions, without the need for emergency admission
• A co-located consultant and midwifery-led birthing centre, with single en-suite rooms which allows partners to stay overnight. It will also have a special care baby unit for those babies needing extra help
• Operating theatres for emergency/high risk surgery including a dedicated maternity theatre

In every corner of Britain, Royal Voluntary Service mobiles volunteers to support those in need, in hospital and in the community.
