Tours of Our Maternity Unit

Choosing where to have your baby is often a big decision, so it’s important to have the opportunity to see our facilities, get to know our staff and feel comfortable that Norwest Private is the right hospital for you.

Our comprehensive maternity tour is guided by one of our experienced midwives and will include viewing the Birth Suites and the Maternity Suites where you will stay after you give birth. Throughout the tour, you will have an opportunity to ask questions. If you want to talk privately after the tour, this can also be arranged. 

Tours are free and held regularly. To make a booking please email your name and mobile number to Maternity.Enquiries@healthscope.com.au
