CGI Flythrough of New Surgical Neonatal Intensive Care Unit & Emergency Floor Expansion at Alder Hey

This 3D CGI rendering shows what the new Surgical Neonatal Intensive Care Unit & Emergency Floor Expansion at Alder Hey will look like when it's complete in 2026.

The new purpose-built facility is the latest addition to Alder Hey’s growing healthcare campus as part of its overarching commitment to provide the very best care to children and young people now and in the future.

To support the Hospital in delivering leading edge urgent care and emergency services, an Emergency Floor Expansion on the ground floor of the new building will bring together the skills and expertise of paediatricians, emergency care clinicians, advance clinical practitioners, primary care and family support workers. This includes a 16-bed assessment unit, a co-located Urgent Treatment Centre and a purpose-built Same Day Emergency Care facility.

Above this will be a new surgical NICU where newborn babies and their families will be cared for by specialist staff including consultant neonatologists, consultant neonatal surgeons, advanced nurse practitioners and specialist neonatal nurses.

Alder Hey Children’s Charity has provided over £3m in funding to provide enhancements and equipment to enable the Hospital to create a truly world-class surgical neonatal intensive care unit.
