Barratt Birth Centre

Description

Barratt Birth Centre / Balmoral Ward

Our birth centre opened in December 2013 and is the first alongside midwife-led unit in the county. Since opening we have received excellent friends and family feedback. The birth centre, located on Balmoral ward has four birthing rooms, three of which have pools, with kitchenettes and double beds. The birth centre provides a way of having a baby in a more homely and calming environment, with all the benefits of having expert medical support very close by should the need arise. The birth centre is suitable for women who are healthy and have had an uncomplicated pregnancy and are unlikely to develop complications during their labour or birth. We offer a 36 week risk assessment clinic for women who live out of the area who wish to use the Birth Centre.
