BHRUT have advised that there is currently a six week wait for routine paediatric bloods. This has been escalated to their colleagues in Pathology, and the Cancer and Clinical Support Division (under whom this service falls). In the meantime space has been made available on Dahlia ward at KGH, and is being created as a location on Swiftqueue to help ease waiting times. There are plans to re-open the pre-Covid phlebotomy space at Queen’s Hospital in the new year, date tbc. We will keep you updated.
