Breast Pumping & Feeding Rooms
We maintain a breast pumping room in room 4120 in the main hospital with 2 private pumping stations, 2 hospital grade electric pumps, a sink, sanitizing wipes, and hand gel. You will need to provide your own Ameda HygieniKit in order to use the breast pumps provided. We do not provide kits to employees or guests.
There is another pumping room in room 2480 at the Outpatient Care Center (OCC) end of the bridge, just beyond the security guard's desk. It is locked and the personnel at the desk will open it upon request. It is only accessible when the desk personnel are present. There is a sink in this pumping room.

If you are in need of a kit or kit pieces, the Wood Street Outpatient Pharmacy sells Ameda kits for $50. UI Health staff are not allowed to give pump kits from patient stock sources.
There is a tub of Ameda spare kit parts on 4W, and you might find what you require in that tub. The charge nurse or Lactation Services staff can help you with that.
