Temporary relocation of Orthopaedics service

Our Orthopaedics service on Gate 38 at Pinderfields Hospital is temporarily relocating to Gate 38A on floor D, starting from 28 April 2025.

Gate 38A is a temporary building that has been constructed next to our Emergency Department. This is to accommodate our patients whilst upgrade and maintenance works take place within the hospital.

Relevant patients and relatives will be made aware of this move. If you are planning to visit the Children’s Burns Unit, please be aware and understand that there may be some temporary disruption. Wayfinding signage is in place to direct you to Gate 38A.

The Orthopaedics service will be located on Gate 38A for approximately six weeks.

The Children’s Burns Unit has now relocated back to Gate 46 following the move of the service into Gate 38A in late February 2025.

Initially, Gate 38A has been configured as a 16-bed facility to allow ventilation, maintenance and other upgrade works to be undertaken on a number of gates. Following the completion of these works, the ward will be reconfigured into a 40-bed ward allowing further works to proceed in the remaining gates, continuing over the next few years until early 2027.
