Maternity wards

Wards 205 and 206 are inside the maternity centre on the City General site.  There are 28 beds on each ward.

On each ward there are 12 ensuite side rooms and 4 en-suite bays (4 beds per bay).

A number of consultant obstetricians work on these wards, providing specialist care for women admitted both before and after birth.

The wards have disabled access in all areas including bathrooms. An assisted bathroom is also available.

Our maternity centre has been accredited as 'UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) Baby Friendly' because of our best practice standards in breastfeeding. There are also breastfeeding co-ordinators available to offer support to women on the wards.

A photographer is available on the wards every morning for women who would like a photograph of their new baby (prices are available from the photographer).

Mobile telephones are permitted on the wards and there is a payphone available in the day room.
