Fortitude Valley Child Health Centre, Heritage medical center in Fortitude Valley, Australia.
The Fortitude Valley Child Health Centre at 112 Alfred Street houses medical facilities and training spaces across two connected buildings from 1923 and 1940.
The facility opened in 1923 as Queensland's first training center for maternal and child welfare nurses, following the introduction of the Maternity Act 1922.
Doctor Alfred Jefferis Turner established protocols at the center for educating mothers about infant nutrition and domestic cleanliness to reduce mortality rates.
The center maintains its original purpose by providing health services to children and mothers while offering professional development for medical personnel.
The center's Arts and Crafts architectural design by Cecil James Virgo incorporates dedicated spaces for both patient care and nurse accommodation.
