The Lindo Wing


mothers receive care and advice from their chosen consultant and dedicated midwives. The team creates a safe care plan for each birth, while also offering discretion, space, security and privacy at every stage. The Lindo Wing offers private ensuite rooms, with


deluxe rooms or suites for those who prefer more space. The state of the art facilities include a secure, supervised nursery, antenatal classes and postnatal care packages. A dedicated hotel services team is on hand to provide extensive and nutritious menus, catering for all cultural and religious requirements including vegetarian, kosher and halal meals. “Many families, including VIPs, come to have their babies at the Lindo Wing, but our aim is to ensure we treat all our patients as VIPs,” says Kerensa. The Lindo Wing is well-equipped to deal with


both straightforward and complex pregnancies with the added reassurance that, should any specialist care be deemed necessary, the unit has access to the critical care and neonatal units within the main hospital.


Reassuring backup As a specialist NHS service on site, the neonatal unit provides reassuring back up for all babies born privately within the Trust. The team treats women who have had complications during their previous or current pregnancies and newborns requiring specialist medical support. The unit is one of the UK’s largest and is based across Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea Hospital – a unit caring for babies born as early as 23 weeks gestation – and St Mary’s Hospital. The unit has in-house scanning capabilities


that cannot be found in most other hospitals. It pioneered the world’s first dedicated neonatal MRI scanner. Only a few hospitals worldwide have this sophisticated technology and the proficiency to carry out non-invasive scans of newborns’ hearts, brains and other organs, and identify conditions and causes. “Many patients are referred through word of


mouth, perhaps through friends or family members who recommend us,” says Kerensa. “It is very gratifying to meet a new patient who has heard so much about our services and it spurs us on to deliver the best healthcare possible.” The Lindo Wing is within walking distance of some of the best Middle Eastern restaurants in London, so familiarity is often key. Arabic is a familiar language on the nearby streets, and the hospital is close to key attractions and the best shopping. “We try and treat everybody exactly how we


would want to be treated if we were in a five star hotel having healthcare,” says Kerensa. “We want all patients to have the very best experience they could possibly have.”
