A new Maternity Centre

The design of the new maternity and neonatal centre is aimed at revolutionising what pregnant women and their families experience before, during and after their time in hospital.

For many women, their connection to the hospital will be one full of good health and happiness whilst for others, the journey to delivering a healthy baby may be an anxious time.

The Maternity Assessment Unit, Consultant-Led and Midwife-Led Units, a central induction unit and the Neonatal Unit will all be located together. This will provide access to our specialist medical teams in one place, and help to ensure the safe transfer of newborn babies who need intensive care after birth in the Neonatal Unit.

This floor also benefits from south and east facing green terraces, providing natural light and a connection to nature.
