Shared maternity care

Werribee Mercy Hospital

Shared maternity care is for women with an uncomplicated pregnancy (sometimes referred to as ‘normal risk’), who prefer to see their GP for most of their pregnancy care.

 

 

Overview

Effective December 1, 2024, Werribee Mercy Hospital will no longer be accepting referrals to the Shared Maternity Care model.

 Werribee Mercy Hospital is dedicated to establishing new midwifery models of care, offering women a broader range of options tailored to their individual needs. For more information visit our Antenatal clinics webpage.
