Short term changes to Manningham Maternal and Child Health service delivery
At times, due to COVID-19, flu season and leave coverage, our MCH service may need to temporarily prioritise essential services to the most vulnerable children and families.
Parents or caregivers with significant concerns about missed or delayed MCH appointments should call 9840 9188 for their MCH appointment to proceed.
To reduce risk of spread of infection, we request that families do not attend if parent or child/ children are unwell.
Information for parents with infants and young children relating to MCH services is found at Maternal and child health services - Better Health Channel
You may also contact the 24 hour Maternal and Child Health Line on 13 22 29 or contact your local GP.
