The very first baby has been born at the new Grange University Hospital.
Poppy Dorothy Brooks was born yesterday at 12.44pm at The Grange’s Birth Centre, weighing 6lbs 15oz.
Poppy’s parents said Helen and Tom “It’s been a lovely experience, every member of staff here has been really nice. It’s a very different experience here at The Grange University Hospital- it’s great.”
The new is opening four months ahead of schedule to help the Health Board respond to winter pressures and Covid-19.
Over the weekend, 42 patients were moved from the Royal Gwent and Nevill Hall hospitals to the new site.
