Hospital: Hospital - Benalla Health Midwifery Ward
Located adjacent to the Surgical Ward, the Midwifery Ward boasts 3 fully contained birthing suites where mothers are admitted and usually remain for the duration of their stay. Antenatal classes and a booking-in program are offered to expectant women and their partners to assist in the preparation for delivery.
