As parents-to-be, you would want to bring\nyour child into the world at the best maternity hospital you could find. Many\npeople in Hong Kong would suggest either one of three places for you to go to\nwhen giving birth in this city: Queen Mary Hospital, Matilda International\nHospital or St Paul\u2019s Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although they are all well-renowned\nestablishments for their maternity services, many other excellent choices are\nalso available. Before you choose where to stay, understand what your needs are\nand if you have any special requests during the maternity-ward stay. Choosing\nbetween staying at a reputable public hospital or a fantastic private hospital\ncan different vastly, so it is important to do your own research prior to\nmaking that final decision. Be sure to ask an experienced midwife or friends\nand family members for their own personal experience at certain hospitals and\ncheck out reviews on the internet for other people\u2019s opinions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public Hospitals: Pros and Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Public hospitals are obliged to admit you and\nprovide you with labour room facilities. They cannot turn you down or turn you\naway. As expected, it is very cost-friendly to give birth in a public hospital.\nThey are also well-equipped in the case of a medical emergency. For those who\nprefer natural births, the C-section rate is lower in public hospitals than\nprivate hospitals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There may be a language barrier for\nnon-Cantonese \/ Mandarin speakers as most public hospital staff speak only these\ndialects. Only Chinese food is offered in public hospitals. You may not have\nmuch choice in your own birth plan. You won\u2019t have an obstetrician-gynaecologist\nand there is less support from the midwife. Partners may not be allowed to\nwitness the birth or be in the delivery room. There may be no privacy as there\ncould be up to ten patients in a room. Public teaching hospitals may require\nstudents to assist or observe your delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Private Hospitals: Pros and Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Private hospitals in Hong Kong offer\nprivate, semi-private and shared rooms, with a maximum of four patients per\nroom, so you will get a lot more privacy then staying in a public hospital.\nPatients get a lot of personalised support, such as help with breastfeeding and\nnursing. English is spoken in all private hospitals which is convenient for\ninternational patients. International meals and better food choices are offered\nat private hospitals. The obstetrician-gynaecologist will give you plenty of\nsupport throughout your pregnancy and your partner will be encouraged to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, private hospitals are usually\nquite expensive, and you have to secure your spot with a down payment. In the\ncase of a medical emergency, private hospitals are not well equipped to deal\nwith such cases and the patient could either be transferred to a public\nhospital or could face a drastic increase in cost. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During your maternity leave, you will need\nto be well-prepared for at least the next few weeks to come. Being ready will\nput you at ease as you will know exactly what to do and where to go. Note down\nthe day and night phone numbers for the hospital authority, the labour unit and\nthe delivery unit. Prepare transportation to the hospital and the hospital bag,\nincluding hospital files, night gowns and change of clothes, lotions, and\nanything that could get you in a relaxed mood. Also have the nursery items\nprepared or, if your partner will be staying, items could be brought to keep\nhim entertained. Be aware of where to go when you arrive at the hospital, including\nthe after-hours entrance, so that you will not get flustered even when you are\nin a hurry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
