We came to the maternity ward on the 26th Dec because of reduced movements. They checked my wife's blood pressure and said it was high. Her blood pressure has been high for a couple days since then. They said it might be pre-eclampsia. They wanted d to induce labour but did not use the tablets but instead used a pessary. That didn't help much. The reason sighted was shortage of meds. My wife is still having headaches but they have stopped monitoring her blood pressure.
They are saying we have to wait for the labour ward for 2-3 days to get slot to break her water. This is our fourth day.
Also most of the staff is very friendly and polite but some are a bit dry and gives you a bit of cold shoulder.
Not blaming any individuals but the service is awful due waiting times and frankly a waste of resources.
An unsatisfied customer.
"Very slow service"
