Paediatrics

Urgent advice

ruh-tr.paediatricemergencyclinic@nhs.net

Requests for urgent advice should be made by email or phone. A mobile number for consultant advice and guidance is available to healthcare professionals. Please contact your practice manager or the hospital switchboard for details. A consultant paediatrician will answer calls between 9am – 5pm Monday to Friday, and emails will be checked daily between Monday midday and Friday midday. Please include the child's NHS number and parent contact details.

Depending on the nature of the request, we may offer advice on patient management, a telephone consultation with the family, or offer an appointment within an appropriate time frame. Children who need seeing urgently may be seen within 24 hours in a consultant clinic or in PAU. Any other appointments will need to be made via eRS.

Referrals for urgent paediatric outpatient appointments should be made via the NHS e-Referral Service system. All referrals are triaged daily by a Consultant Paediatrician and referrals for specialist clinics may be seen for initial assessment in a general paediatric clinic if appropriate. If a child is already known to the Paediatric Department please state the name of the Consultant they have seen previously. However, not all referrals sent in as 'urgent' are deemed so on triage so some appointments may be made within 2 weeks or managed through the routine system. Please manage parental expectations appropriately.
