"Outstanding care Comc Emerald"

About: Continuity of Midwifery Carer Service / Emerald Team

(as a service user),

A team of girls who provided fantastic care throughout my pregnancy. This is an outstanding service credit to the group of girls. 

Briege was my named midwife who I saw during my A/n and p/n check ups, she was incredibly supportive, I felt fully informed on my options for varying things, and I felt respected in any decisions I took. I often looked forward to my appts with Briege, for reassurance in the progression of the pregnancy, opportunity to raise any questions, and a check-in on how I was doing.

Sarah M carried out my 12 wks scan professionally, reassuring any queries, useful advice around exercising, and incredibly kind and warm.

Both Gillian and Grace visited me postnatally and they were both very caring, listened and answered any questions without judgement, and offered fantastic advice on how to manage different issues that arose with feeding issues, baby rash, and so much more.

You can clearly see how well these group of girls work as a team both the midwives and Vicky. E.g. in clinic working efficiently, and covering for each other when on a/l, ultimately to ensure the best patient care. I felt I was under the care of the entire team as well as my named midwife.
