About the Nairobi West Hospital Maternity Package
Expecting a baby is one of life’s most precious moments, and choosing the right maternity care facility is crucial for both mother and child. The Nairobi West Hospital, located on Gandhi Avenue in Nairobi, has established itself as a leading healthcare provider with comprehensive maternity packages designed to give expectant mothers peace of mind during this exciting journey.
A Modern Maternity Experience
The hospital boasts a state-of-the-art maternity wing equipped with cutting-edge technology to ensure the highest standards of care. Their ultramodern facility features wireless CTG machines that monitor both fetal and maternal heart rates during labor and delivery, allowing mothers the freedom to move comfortably during the birthing process. This advanced equipment accurately differentiates between maternal and fetal heart rates, providing medical staff with precise real-time information to ensure safe deliveries.
The maternity department is staffed by a dedicated team of experienced obstetricians, gynecologists, neonatologists, pediatricians, and specially selected nurses who work around the clock to provide exceptional care. This multidisciplinary approach ensures that both routine and complex pregnancy cases receive expert attention.
Comprehensive Package Options
Nairobi West Hospital offers a range of maternity packages tailored to different needs and budgets, covering both normal and caesarean deliveries. For normal deliveries, packages range from KSh 55,000 to KSh 130,000, while caesarean section packages span from KSh 168,000 to KSh 318,000.
The normal delivery package typically includes a two-day hospital stay, diagnostic laboratory tests, one pediatrician review, two gynecological reviews, essential consumables, immunizations (BCG, Polio, and Hepatitis B), medications during the hospital stay and upon discharge, and accommodation in the patient’s choice of room. All rooms are ensuite, ensuring privacy and comfort.
For caesarean deliveries, the package extends to a four-day hospital stay and includes additional services such as ultrasound diagnostics, surgeon fees, theater fees, anesthetist fees, theater consumables, and all the standard inclusions of the normal delivery package. Premium packages like the VVIP Platinum Plus offer enhanced amenities, including a dedicated nurse and full board accommodation for a partner or lodger.
Beyond Delivery: Holistic Care
What sets Nairobi West Hospital apart is their commitment to comprehensive maternal care. The facility offers a “Bundle of Joy” program that provides expectant mothers with prenatal classes covering infant care, breastfeeding techniques, and educational sessions for families. They also provide postpartum courses to help new mothers adjust to life with their newborn.
The hospital specializes in managing high-risk pregnancies and offers various pain management options during labor and delivery, including epidural anesthesia and non-pharmacological techniques such as massage and breathing exercises. These options are discussed and customized based on each patient’s individual needs and preferences.
Financial Flexibility
Understanding that healthcare costs can be a concern, Nairobi West Hospital works with various insurance providers and accepts NHIF coverage. While NHIF typically covers KSh 2,700 on the daily bed rate, civil servants may receive additional coverage depending on their authorization. Private insurance can also be utilized up to the policy limit, with most insurance companies covering the net amount after NHIF contribution.
