Profile
In mid-2006, as part of the health reform in
Western Australia, King Edward Memorial Hospital (KEMH) joined with
other women's based health services to form the new WNHS, which is
a part of the larger NMHS.
With dedicated staff and best practices based
on the most current evidence-based medicine, WNHS continues to
deliver first-class health care to women and infants in
WA.
KEMH is the State's only tertiary maternity
and gynaecological hospital and treated its first patients in 1916.
Today more than 6000 births take place at the hospital every year
and it is WA's only major referral centre for high-risk
pregnancies. KEMH also has a state-of-the-art Special Care Nursery,
designed to care for premature and sick infants.
KEMH also cares for approximately 5000 women
with gynaecological conditions each year - from urological and
cancer related problems to sexually transmitted diseases and
reproductive disorders.
WNHS also offer a maternity and gynaecology
unit at Osborne Park Hospital (OPH) which provides gynaecology care
and obstetric care to women with low to moderate risk
pregnancies. Women may choose to receive care at OPH for
general convenience whilst receiving equally specialised care at a
smaller suburban site.
WNHS manages several state wide services such
as BreastScreen WA, and other specialist programs for women and
babies.
