Greenslopes Maternity Your Journey 5 Registering your admission Prior to you coming into hospital, you are required to register your admission to confirm your personal details, health history and financial details. Once your pregnancy has been confirmed, please fill in our online booking registration form available on the bookings page of our website www.greenslopesmaternity.com.au. It is expected that at this time your personal details will be confirmed and also a nurse may ask you for a clinical history. Every effort will be made to complete this during one phone call, however, sometimes this is not possible and we will undertake a follow up phone call. Please have the following information ready when registering your admission: • Name and contact details of your next-of-kin and a second contact person • Name and contact details of your GP • Health history and a list of current medications • Medicare Card • Pension Card (if applicable) • Health Care Card (if applicable) • Safety Net or Concession Card (if applicable) • Private Health Insurance Membership Card (if applicable) Rooming In We encourage rooming in with your baby as it promotes: • Bonding • Breastfeeding • Confidence in settling your baby • Understanding of your baby’s individual needs • Healthier, more secure babies.
