Why should you choose Prince Court Maternity Services?

Highly Skilled, Multi-disciplinary Team and Advanced Facilities for You and Your Baby’s Care

At Prince Court Medical Centre, we are committed to providing the highest level of maternity care to our patients. Every year, we serve nearly 5000 women and their babies during pregnancy, labour, birth, and the postpartum period. Our team of specialists is well-equipped to handle women with complex needs, including those with high blood pressure, diabetes, multiple babies, or who are birthing prematurely or late in pregnancy. We are equipped with advanced surgical and pain relief facilities that can effectively manage any unforeseen emergency situations. 

We believe that the key to providing excellent care for your newborn is having a highly skilled team of medical professionals and state-of-the-art facilities. That's why we have a Special Care Nursery (SCN) and a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), both fully equipped to handle any emergency that may arise. Our team of paediatric specialists and subspecialists includes neonatologists, paediatric geneticists, paediatric neurologists, paediatric cardiologists, and paediatric surgeons, among others. With their expertise and dedication, you can be rest assured that your baby is in good hands.

Constant Monitoring of Your Baby's Safety

Prince Court Medical Centre utilises a heart rate Cardiotocography (CTG) system that is connected to the doctor's phone to constantly monitor the baby's condition during labour. This advanced system allows our experienced medical team to monitor the CTG machine for any signs of distress in the baby's heart rate or the mother's contractions. If there is any indication of fetal distress, the medical team is immediately notified through their mobile devices, enabling them to take prompt action to address the situation.

In addition, the innovative RFID tagging system is a feature that enhances the safety and security of newborns at Prince Court Medical Centre. Using radio frequency identification, the system tracks the location of the baby in real-time, ensuring that the baby is always within designated safe zones. In case of any deviation from the norm or if the baby moves out of the safe zone, the system immediately alerts the medical team.  

This technology is particularly useful for premature babies who require close monitoring and care, allowing the medical team to keep a close watch on the baby's location and condition, ensuring timely intervention in case of any emergency. Moreover, the RFID tagging system provides peace of mind for parents, as you can be assured that your newborn is always under constant monitoring and within safe zones.

Comfort and Privacy

At Prince Court Medical Centre, we provide a warm and welcoming environment that supports the mother's comfort and relaxation throughout the childbirth process. Our 4 spacious delivery suites are equipped with modern facilities and advanced medical equipment, ensuring a safe and comfortable delivery experience for both mother and baby. Our 14 maternity rooms are all single rooms with ensuite bathrooms, designed to cater to your unique needs with dedicated amenities such as a sofa bed and a nursing chair.

Furthermore, we offer round-the-clock medical assistance to provide you with the support and care you need during this special time. Our experienced medical team is always available to answer any questions you may have about your newborn's care, and we provide guidance on practising skin-to-skin contact, teaching kangaroo care and assisting with breastfeeding. We believe that these services play a crucial role in your recovery and bonding with your newborn.

In addition to our comfortable accommodations, we also provide a specially-crafted confinement menu created by professional dietitians. Our menu offers delicious and nourishing meals that provide the essential nutrients needed for new mothers to recover and regain strength after childbirth. We understand that the postpartum period can be challenging, which is why we have an array of dishes that are nutritious and delicious to help you feel your best.

Prince Court Medical Centre's support for new parents does not stop after delivery. A comprehensive post-delivery guide has been designed to help new parents navigate the early days of parenthood. The medical team teaches parents baby CPR, baby massage, the correct way to feed and bathe a baby, and how to safely secure the baby in a car seat. Our midwives are available 24/7 for enquiries.
