“We’ll be putting in post ante and neo-natal facilities, a first stage delivery room, a post aesthetics delivery unit, eight new delivery rooms, three new operating theaters, a palliative care ward, a high dependency unit.”

With almost two years of planning, the facility is one that meets high international standards and one that delivers a complete package of co-ordinated care designed for women.
