IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: St John of God Mt Lawley Hospital maternity services
Today St John of God Health Care announced we will be adopting a new north / south model of maternity care across our Perth metropolitan private hospitals.
Under the new model, St John of God Mt Lawley Hospital maternity services will permanently transfer to St John of God Subiaco Hospital at 6am on Wednesday 20 December 2023 to create a northern maternity centre of excellence.
This will complement St John of God Murdoch Hospital’s centre of excellence, which will continue to service Perth’s southern communities.
Making this transition smooth for our mums and families currently booked to have babies at Mt Lawley is our priority.
Consolidating private maternity services at two sites will enable us to continue to develop and enhance our services with our highly skilled workforce.
If you are booked to have your baby at St John of God Mt Lawley Hospital from 20 December onwards, our team will contact you shortly via SMS, phone call and email to discuss what this means for you. All births prior to Wednesday 20 December 2023 will continue at Mt Lawley Hospital as planned.
In the meantime, these FAQs on our website will hopefully answer any questions: https://www.sjog.org.au/our-locations/st-john-of-god-mt-lawley-hospital/news/news/2023/11/15/09/36/new-maternity-model-of-care-for-perth
Thank you for your understanding as we work with you through this transition.
