Antenatal clinic teams provide antenatal care to all out of area women who chose to have their baby at Kingston Hospital.
In line with National Maternity Review (2016) we aim to provide continuity of care to all women during their antenatal period, promoting women centred, individualised care.
Clinics are held in our Antenatal clinic at Kingston Hospital Maternity Unit, Monday to Saturday. Within the clinic, teams have been split into postcodes to promote continuity of care. Women are encouraged to book their appointments accordingly, with the aim to be cared for by no more than 2 midwives throughout their pregnancy.
