I cannot fault the outstanding care I had at every stage

Posted By NewMum182

"I cannot fault the outstanding care I had at every stage"

About: Maternity care / Consultant Led Unit Maternity care / Maternity Ward Maternity care / Midwife Led Unit

(as the patient),

I recently gave birth in the Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy. I had a few diversions from my original birth plan and despite being low risk the entire time I was pregnant, I ended up having quite a traumatic birth. 

I cannot fault the outstanding care I had at every stage of my labour journey. I spent time in the maternity led unit, induction suite, consultant led unit and the recovery suite.

Every single member of staff I encountered was kind, efficient and made me feel like I was in excellent hands. The staff looked after myself, my husband and my baby really well and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone involved in my care.
