The Emergency Department forms part of the hospital’s new Emergency Village.

The unit features facilities in modern surroundings, designed to enhance patient care. It is located on Whinney Heys Road and is easily identifiable by the clock tower that stands at the entrance to the department.

Car parking is restricted but there is a short stay car park in front of the building. Buses going to and from Blackpool stop to the right of the building and the nearest railway station is half a mile away at Layton.
