The Mackay Birth Centre has recently celebrated a 5th Birthday!
We are situated on hospital grounds- not within the hospital- our home has moved to a
temporary location whilst we await the redevelopment of Mackay Base. The building
itself was originally a 2 bedroom house where doctors lived.
Well done Katrina and all midwives and women in Mackay who have kept the
spirit alive and enabled it to grow. You are a shining example of
quality care on the bleak landscape of maternity services in Qld.
