Maternity at Heatherwood
The Heatherwood Maternity Unit is excited to announce its relaunch following extensive refurbishment, set to finish by the end of March 2009. With a rebranding initiative, we are proud to host a special event where a celebrity will join us in celebrating the new unit. The NCT is collaborating with us for the relaunch, and a media open day will welcome past parents to share their experiences. Our unit has been averaging 30 patients daily and aims for a 7-day service from 8 am to 7 pm, with ongoing recruitment efforts.
