"maternity stay."

About: Queen Alexandra Hospital / Mary Rose Maternity Centre

I came in Saturday 1st of September when my contractions became too much and stayed until discharged 4/9/19.

I wanted to review the care I received from labour to discharge because those on the maternity wards, I am astounded at the level of care provided by those on the ward provided for me and those I witnessed around me. The midwives are extremely professional but make you feel ever so comfortable at the same time. I was supported and kept in the loop the whole time I was there and I was always checked on to ensure health and comfort.

The support workers on the left post natal ward are some of the most lovely and supportive women I’ve ever met and went above and beyond to make sure, I, in particular was very on edge about having my first newborn and being on my own at night, but I was supported to make sure I didn’t feel alone and I was given some strong advice! I stayed for 2 nights and witnessed everyone working on shift working so hard! They barely have time to breathe but make sure everyone is cared for. I wanted to say thank you and you’re all amazing
