Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene inaugurated the new maternity wing at the Centre Hospitalier Princesse Grace on Thursday 16th April, joining senior officials for a tour of the recently renovated spaces.

The ceremony began with the unveiling of a commemorative plaque in the obstetric emergency room. The Princely Couple were accompanied by Minister of State Christophe Mirmand, CHPG Director Benoîte Rousseau de Sevelinges, and Professor Bruno Carbonne, head of the maternity department.

A new standard of care
The refurbished wing encompasses a double parental room, a birthing pool room, a delivery suite, an obstetric emergency room, and new operating theatre spaces. The works are designed to provide modern, functional facilities suited to the needs of mothers and their birth partners.

The inauguration comes just days after the opening of the Parent-Child Unit at the same hospital. Together, the two projects complete the CHPG’s Pôle Mère-Enfant — a dedicated mother and child centre offering an integrated care pathway from birth onwards.
