Additional information
The Community Midwife program provides antenatal support and education, midwifery support and assessment during labour, and the promotion of early discharge with post-natal care in the home environment.
The midwife will visit women in their own environment several times during their pregnancy to book them into hospital, answer questions, prepare for the birth of the baby as well as bringing the baby home.
An assessment of early labour can be done in the home, with advice on when to come to hospital.
Women in the program will be discharged to home within 24 hours after the baby is born, where they will be followed up at home by the community midwife (rather than the Domiciliary Midwife), who will provide support with your transition into parenthood.
Women who require an advanced level of obstetric or paediatric care for themselves or their baby may not be accepted.
Referral: Referrals are accepted from the woman's General Practitioner or Obstetrician.
Fees: There are no fees for this service.
Hours: To make an appointment call the service at Mildura Base Hospital on 5022 3480.
