Peter Lougheed Hospital

Unit 31 3500 26 Ave NE, Calgary, AB T1Y 6J4

We deliver out of the Peter Lougheed Hospital. At any point during your pregnancy, if you believe you may be in labour, you do not need to let the clinic know. Go directly to Unit 31 - third floor. Bring your AB healthcare card and let them know you are a patient at NEST. A physician is always on call and in the hospital to provide your care.

What to expect on AT THE HOSPITAL?

During triage assessments (where you are first assessed and wait for the Doctor) only one support person is allowed.

On the Labour unit, you will have a private room with space for you and your support person(s). Up to two support people (no children) are allowed.

  • Each labour room has a private bathroom with a shower

  • One on one nursing care with a registered nurse. Your nurse will change roughly every 12 hours

  • Once you have had your baby and we have ensured that there are no complications for you or the baby, you will be transferred to a new room on our postpartum unit.

  • Please visit www.birthandbabies.com for a virtual tour of our hospital

Post Partum two support people are allowed at a time (children included). We encourage fewer visitors on the Post Partum unit so that our new mothers and babies can rest. :)

Please call NEST as soon as possible after delivery to book your first new baby visit. We aim to see new mothers and babies within 5-7 days after birth, sooner if there are concerns. We will see you at our clinic for 6 weeks postpartum before transferring you back to your Family Doctor.

If You Are Experiencing COVID-19 Symptoms

If you have symptoms of illness, such as cough, congestion, runny nose, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever, PLEASE DO NOT COME TO THE OFFICE WITHOUT CALLING THE CLINIC FIRST AT 403-250-5066. One of our physicians will speak to you on the phone and if you must be seen in person we will make special arrangements for this. It is OK to go to the hospital if you are having these symptoms, just please alert the staff upon arrival so that proper precautions can be taken.
