Wellington's new children's hospital is just days away from admitting its first child.
Te Wao Nui was blessed and opened in September, but will start treatments from the 17th of October.Â
The hospital has 50 inpatient beds and 101 outpatient beds, and will provide care for babies and children aged up to 16, covering the lower North Island and Nelson and Marlborough.
Children who are treated in the new hospital will be in private, light, self-contained, temperature-controlled rooms, with their own en suites.
Nick Mills and Wellington Mornings were given an exclusive tour ahead of the big day.Â
