Our Jenny Lind Children's Hospital is a hospital within a hospital for children and young people. We have a consultant team of acute general paediatricians, neonatal paediatricians, paediatric surgeons and community paediatricians contribute to the services here supported by an extensive team of specialist nurses and other professionals including physiotherapy, dietetics, speech and language therapy and play specialists.

We also provide an acute emergency service for medical and surgical problems in children from birth to 16 years and, in some cases, beyond, including neonatal intensive care. Out-patient services are available for General Paediatric problems as well as specialist clinics in Children's Respiratory disease including Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis, Neurological disease and Epilepsy, Children's Rheumatology, Children's Cancers, Children's Gastroenterology, Diabetes and Endocrinology and the follow-up of patients requiring newborn intensive care.

We provide specialist surgical and urology clinics or the local population and via outreach clinics to the wider population of Great Yarmouth and Ipswich. We work closely with colleagues in the hospital providing care for children needing orthopaedic surgery, dermatology, plastic surgery, ear nose and throat surgery and ophthalmology care. We have visiting consultants in the specialised fields of paediatric cardiology, neurology, oncology, endocrinology and clinical genetics.
