About us

East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust was formed in 2003 from the merger of Blackburn, Hyndburn and Ribble Valley NHS Trust and the Burnley Hospitals NHS Trust. East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust provides a caring service to a population of approximately 510,000.

Services are provided from two main sites, the Royal Blackburn Hospital and Burnley General Hospital.The Royal Blackburn Hospital and Phase V at Burnley General Hospital are significant PFI developments.

In 2006 a service reconfiguration, 'meeting patients needs' was implemented which resulted in the Blackburn site becoming the centre for all acute services in East Lancashire. The ED at Blackburn is the only ED for East Lancashire and since 2012 has become a Trauma Unit in the Lancashire Trauma network with the trauma centre at the Royal Preston Hospital. The ED is supported by Urgent Care Centres at Blackburn and Burnley and a Minor Injuries Unit at Accrington.

Burnley is the site for the East Lancashire Women and Newborn Centre with an in-patient obstetric unit. There is a midwife led birthing unit off the Hospital site in Blackburn

In 2012 the Royal Blackburn Hospital was designated as one of the Lancashire Vascular Centres.

The Trust has close links with a number of Tertiary Centres in Lancashire, Manchester and Liverpool.
