The Team & Role

Our New Peninsula University Hospital, situated in Frankston, has a Women's Health Outpatient service that has been specifically designed to provide our families with evidence-based state of the art care in a welcoming environment. This works hand in hand with our Inpatient area that is situated across one whole level of the New Tower.

We have a State-of-the-Art Birth Suite including a Pregnancy Assessment Unit and Fetal Monitoring Service that our Midwifery Leaders had input in to ensure smooth workflows with both staff and families as high priority in the design.

Our Special Care Nursey sits next to Birth Suite to provide a high level of collaboration and support when required. We have a separate 32 bed Maternity Ward that provides exceptional care for families pre and post birth. We currently support over 2500 families per year.

Our MGP program is growing and able to support a range of women through their pregnancies with a model that is able to provide continuity at all risk levels. We are also working towards providing homebirth on the Peninsula.
