During your stay at Mater Mothers’ Private Townsville, you are guaranteed accommodation in a private room with an ensuite. Each private room is spacious and has a fridge with minibar menu, TV, phone, coffee-pod machine, breastfeeding lamp, and Wi-Fi connection to ensure your comfort. Our food service delivers freshly prepared, nutritious meals direct to your bedside.
You and your family will also have around the clock access to the expertise and support offered by our caring team. They will work closely with your obstetrician to deliver compassionate, expert care for you and your baby in preparation for going home. The nurse station is only a short distance away should you require any assistance or advice, at any time, day and night.
You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and a comprehensive selection of support services in one convenient location, including antenatal and parent education classes. Our onsite Special Care Nursery provides care to babies born prematurely from 34 weeks and not requiring ventilation.
If your baby requires more intense treatment, a transfer to the Townsville University Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) may be required. This decision will be made in consultation with you, the parent or care giver, and your baby’s paediatrician.
