About the Bub-Hub
The George Centre is dedicated to providing a centre of learning for our community.
With this in mind, we have created the Bub Hub – an education space located on Level 3 of the hospital and the Maternity Ward on Level 2.
The focus of the Education Hive and Bub Hub is to connect individuals, mums and their babies with expert advice and providers of services. Some of these services include ante and postnatal care provided by The George Centre’s midwives as part of your maternity booking, and other services are offered by third party providers at an additional fee.
External service providers can also offer services provided to mums in their home when they leave The George Centre. There are many choices available and our maternity team will be able to assist you with resources and contact informaton regarding additional paid services that you can access.
A holistic approach to healthcare and parenthood education
We believe that our role is not only to provide our community with medical and birth facilities, but to facilitate access to education providers that empower individuals and families to grow and thrive.
The goal of our education services and classes is to contirbute to the improved health of our region. We therefore welcome and encourage expert providers to access this space for their private services if it helps to meet our community’s needs. The education space is also utilised by The George Centre’s medical specialists to conduct private education seminars to the wider community and health practitioners.
