Outpatient services

Our Newborn and Parent Support Service and the Growth and Development Follow Up Clinic specialise in the care and support of premature babies.

We also offer a range of services and clinics for newborns, children and parents. You can search through the complete list of our services and clinics.

Newborn and Parent Support Service

Newborn and Parent Support Service (NAPSS) provides an early discharge program for NICU and Special Care Nursery families and babies who still require nursing care, support and advice at home.

The Newborn and Parent Support Service operates Monday to Saturday as well as 24-hour telephone support.

Growth and Development Follow Up Clinic

We may invite you to participate in our Growth and Development Follow Up Clinic. This is to make sure babies who have left our unit who may be at high risk of developmental and behavioural problems are referred to the appropriate services.
