Childbirth experience

"Childbirth experience"

About: Community midwifery care / South Belfast Maternity care / Delivery Suite Maternity care / Johnston House Royal Jubilee Maternity services / Maternity care

(as the patient),

I want to say a huge thank you to all the staff at the Royal Jubilee maternity hospital. I was extremely nervous as I did not have a great experience the first time having to be induced. After a lovely, reassuring discussion with midwife Barbara I decided to go back to the RVH for my second child. 

My care was exceptional throughout, from the induction team, L&D team and the team in Johnston House. My midwife, Clionadh, was fantastic and talked me through everything. I was kept involved in my care and given plenty of choice and guidance throughout, keeping a relaxed environment during what can be a stressful time for a mother. I couldn’t have asked for a better care team or delivery- thank you!
