"Summary The latter part of this submission has raised a number of issues for the Task Force to consider when determining the closure of Woodside Maternity Hospital and potential relocation sites. We believe the situation will not be as simple as transferring a ward from one area of a hospital to another on site location within the campus. Many issues need to be considered least of which are the "bricks and mortar" required for a new unit. We propose 3 alternative replacement facilities be considered: 1. The total redevelopment on site of Woodside Maternity Hospital inclusive of the many features mentioned in Part IV The Building Structure. Reference: Concept Plan for the Redevelopment as Woodside Women's Health Service - Health Care Consulting Service 1996 Reference: The Design of a Maternity and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Woodside Maternity Hospital. Interior Architecture - Curtin University Dr Marie A Fourner Architect / Health Planner 2004 Reference: A Proposal for a Primary Health Care Model of Midwifery Services at Ryde Hospital. Introduction of the Ryde Midwifery Group Practice. Author Associate Professor Sally Tracy Midwifery Research and Practice Development Unit 15 March 2004. OR 2. Relocation of Woodside Maternity Hospital to the newly purchased Kaleeya Hospital in Bicton. Although at first glance this suggestion as a "appropriate replacement facility" could appear to be considered "patch protection" it would provide most of the attributes required for a women's health unit. It has recently been renovated and there is currently considerable investment being made to install a comprehensive Information Technology system. It has an appropriate number of beds for both an obstetric and gynaecology service, adequate theatre and recovery room facilities, and areas for a separate Antenatal Clinic, allied health and patient support facilities. Lecture theatres and demonstration rooms for students could be converted form existing consulting rooms. It is acknowledged there is no tertiary intensive care on site, but this service does not exist at the peripheral hospitals designated to retain maternity units (a recommendation of the Cohen Report). This unit however is close to both the Queen Elizabeth Medical Centre and King Edward Memorial Hospital. Retention of a local service would continue to cater for the women of the Greater Fremantle District. Urban redevelopment and infill of the older residential blocks and former industrial areas is now beginning to escalate and it could be speculated that there will be a continue demand for a women's health service in this district in the coming years. 3. Construction of a new maternity unit at the proposed Fiona Stanley Hospital, taking into account the recommendations and concerns expressed within this submission. We are challenging the relocation of Woodside to another facility without demonstrated evidence that a better service can be provided. We recognise our response has not provided a definitive answer but has raised an awareness - and proposed some alternative options and desired features for a women's health service in the South Metropolitan area. Woodside Maternity Hospital is well recognised as having a long tradition of excellence and innovation. It would be regretful for the tradition and name of the Hospital to be lost given that it has provided health care too the residents of the South Metropolitan Area since 1923. This recognition of service should be incorporated in the naming of any newly designed facility - be it on-site or at another location.

The latter part of this submission has raised a number of issues for the Task Force to consider when determining the closure of Woodside Maternity Hospital and potential relocation sites. We believe the situation will not be as simple as transferring a ward from one area of a hospital to another on site location within the campus. Many issues need to be considered least of which are the "bricks and mortar" required for a new unit. We propose 3 alternative replacement facilities be considered: 1. The total redevelopment on site of Woodside Maternity Hospital inclusive of the many features mentioned in Part IV The Building Structure.

Introduction of the Ryde Midwifery Group Practice. Author Associate Professor Sally Tracy Midwifery Research and Practice Development Unit 15 March 2004. OR 2. Relocation of Woodside Maternity Hospital to the newly purchased Kaleeya Hospital in Bicton. Although at first glance this suggestion as a "appropriate replacement facility" could appear to be considered "patch protection" it would provide most of the attributes required for a women's health unit. It has recently been renovated and there is currently considerable investment being made to install a comprehensive Information Technology system. It has an appropriate number of beds for both an obstetric and gynaecology service, adequate theatre and recovery room facilities, and areas for a separate Antenatal Clinic, allied health and patient support facilities. Lecture theatres and demonstration rooms for students could be converted form existing consulting rooms. It is acknowledged there is no tertiary intensive care on site, but this service does not exist at the peripheral hospitals designated to retain maternity units (a recommendation of the Cohen Report).

Woodside Maternity Hospital is well recognised as having a long tradition of excellence and innovation. It would be regretful for the tradition and name of the Hospital to be lost given that it has provided health care too the residents of the South Metropolitan Area since 1923. This recognition of service should be incorporated in the naming of any newly designed facility - be it on-site or at another location. This submission is endorsed by: · The staff at Woodside Maternity Hospital. · The Medical Advisory Committee - Woodside Maternity Hospital. · The General Practitioners Obstetricians Antenatal Clinic - Woodside Maternity Hospital. · Susan Downes Liaison GP Woodside Maternity Hospital. 23/06/2005" (2-7) The submission by Woodside staff speaks for itself.
OR 2. Relocation of Woodside Maternity Hospital to the newly purchased Kaleeya Hospital in Bicton. Although at first glance this suggestion as a "appropriate replacement facility" could appear to be considered "patch protection" it would provide most of the attributes required for a women's health unit. It has recently been renovated and there is currently considerable investment being made to install a comprehensive Information Technology system. It has an appropriate number of beds for both an obstetric and gynaecology service, adequate theatre and recovery room facilities, and areas for a separate Antenatal Clinic, allied health and patient support facilities. Lecture theatres and demonstration rooms for students could be converted form existing consulting rooms. It is acknowledged there is no tertiary intensive care on site, but this service does not exist at the peripheral hospitals designated to retain maternity units (a recommendation of the Cohen Report). This unit however is close to both the Queen Elizabeth Medical Centre and King Edward Memorial Hospital. Retention of a local service would continue to cater for the women of the Greater Fremantle District. Urban redevelopment and infill of the older residential blocks and former industrial areas is now beginning to escalate and it could be speculated that there will be a continue demand for a women's health service in this district in the coming years. 3. Construction of a new maternity unit at the proposed Fiona Stanley Hospital, taking into account the recommendations and concerns expressed within this submission. We are challenging the relocation of Woodside to another facility without demonstrated evidence that a better service can be provided. We recognise our response has not provided a definitive answer but has raised an awareness - and proposed some alternative options and desired features for a women's health service in the South Metropolitan area.
