About Our Mother/Baby Program

The Listowel Memorial Hospital (LMH) Mother/Baby Program offers a private, quiet and well supported environment for you, your baby and your family/support people. Our department consists of two private labour rooms and 4 private post-partum rooms. We have a large waiting room that is available for friends and family. Labouring women are encouraged to have their support person/ people with them at any time they choose. All patients receive one on one supportive care during labour. Patients who deliver at LMH have access to the pre-birth clinic, epidurals, C-sections, and well baby checks. Patients are cared for by highly skilled nurses, physicians and midwives. Your birth plan is important to the team and we are happy to answer any questions you may have. We are committed to supporting the safest, patient-centered, low risk birthing experience possible.

Temporary Emergency Department Closure

Wingham and District Hospital

As a result of a staffing shortage, the Wingham and District Hospital Emergency Department will be temporarily closed this weekend as follows:

  • Friday June 9th from 5 pm until 7 am the following morning
  • Saturday June 10th from 5 pm until 7 am the following morning
  • Sunday June 11th from 5 pm until 7am on Monday June 12th.

Patients are asked to call 911 if they have a medical emergency. Emergency Medical Services (EMS – Ambulances) will remain available to the community and will be re-routed to surrounding hospitals to ensure local residents continue to have access to the emergency services they need.

For non-urgent health care call Health Connect Ontario at 811, which is available 24/7 for non-emergency health-related questions.

The following is a list of closest hospitals (they may also be experiencing temporary closures due to staffing shortages so it is advised that you confirm that they are open before heading there):

  • Listowel
  • Clinton
  • Goderich
  • Palmerston
  • Seaforth
  • Kincardine
  • Walkerton

This is a temporary measure and our staff, board, physicians and leadership regret that we have to take this step.
