Mediclinic Parkview Hospital is delighted to announce that it has introduced midwife postnatal home visits. These home visits are designed to address all your needs after you have left the hospital following the birth of your baby, helping you to feel more confident during this emotional and important journey into parenthood.
Our aim is to support you during your postnatal journey by providing personalized midwifery care and support when you need it the most.
Midwife postnatal home visits
After your baby is born, the joy and excitement you feel can often be mixed with fatigue from a lack of sleep and worry about your new responsibilities as a parent.
