The Children’s Emergency Department (CHED) at Medway Maritime Hospital can be accessed through the main hospital entrance, following the ‘teddy bear’ signs located on the floor to Red Zone, Level 2.
Our department is run by medical staff who are specially trained to deal with health issues in children and young people up to the age of 17 years old.
Think 111 first for non-emergencies
If you need urgent medical help or you’re not sure what to do, contact NHS 111 first. NHS 111 will ask questions about your symptoms so you get the help you need. If you need to go to hospital, NHS 111 will book an arrival time for you, which means you might spend less time waiting.
You can get help from 111 online or call 111. It’s available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
