The Cowichan Maternity Clinic (CMC) operates within 2North, the maternity ward at Cowichan District Hospital (CDH). The ward includes two birthing rooms, one operating room, and four postpartum rooms, offering a safe and comfortable birthing experience. Our nursing staff is highly skilled, supportive, and deeply committed to patient care.
Exciting changes are on the horizon! A new Cowichan District Hospital is set to open in 2027, featuring expanded maternity facilities, including a Level 1-2 nursery, to better serve growing community needs.
CMC follows a hybrid care model, balancing clinic-based and hospital-based responsibilities. Our team—comprising physicians, a nurse, registered midwives and a social worker—provides prenatal care, in-hospital support, and postpartum home visits.
We accommodate flexible schedules, allowing providers to balance CMC duties with other professional commitments. Additionally, 24/7 OBGYN, Anesthesia, and Pediatric coverage ensures seamless, round-the-clock support for our patients, with specialist colleagues who are always ready to assist.
The Cowichan Maternity Clinic provides mentorship opportunities for recent graduates and experienced providers seeking to enhance their skills in obstetrical and perinatal care. Our supportive, collaborative team fosters professional growth and continuous learning.
CMC offers competitive remuneration, including provincial incentives. Compensation is structured to reflect the essential services we provide and supports a sustainable, rewarding career in maternity care.
