AWH offers inpatient antenatal care, a Midwife Care Program, compassionate and family focused birthing and postnatal services and a Domiciliary service whereby you are offered a visit by a midwife in your home following discharge. 

The woman's individual care needs and circumstances will be considered when choosing the most appropriate care model.  Some high risk, or at risk, complicated pregnancies may require additional medical or other support.  Importantly, we work in partnership with the woman.

For full pregnancy care options please refer to our Maternity Care Patient Information Booklet.
