Special delivery – welcome to maternity, neonates and gynae

November 6, 2024

Today is a momentous day as we’ve completed our second patient move day, welcoming maternity, neonatal and gynaecology services to Midland Met.

One by one, expectant mums arrived at our new maternity department, which includes a midwife led birthing unit with 15 birthing rooms, a delivery suite, two maternity wards, a neonatal unit and antenatal services.  As part of the move, we’ve welcomed 18 mums, 12 babies, and 12 neonatal patients with seven admissions in gynae.

As new and expectant mums made their way into the hospital, they were warmly welcomed, and we’re pleased to say three babies have been born so far at Midland Met.

Our first arrival was baby Mona Lisa, is snuggled up in her Midland Met babygrow. Her proud dad shared his thoughts on his new bundle of joy and how much this moment means to him and his family.
