(as a service user),

I am a mental health service user and have been for many years and at age of 45 found out i was pregnant with my first and probably only child , the care i have received in Mid argyll hospital GPs nurses and midwives and also A & B hospital mental health services have been exceptional , i have no complaints staff are always friendly know what they are doing efficient and helpful with information and further on care if needed  , i was special care pregnancy what with my age , build and diabetes and mental health issues and asthma , i went on to be induced at 38  weeks as obstrician dr robins and nurses at inverclyde hospital were good too i went on to give birth at RAH in Paisley with labour 21 hours and with just gas and air all midwives from the 3 hospitals were good at keeping myself and husband calm and focused.

my family are thriving here in mid argyll my daughter is now three years old and in perfect health Scotland and rest of uk would be no where without NHS but back to dark old middle ages and no one wants that i have nothing but praise for GPs Nurses NHS Midwives and mental health teams and Consultants ect. 

Yours Sincerely

Dear Marstal Rose

Many thanks for taking the time to share your story and your experiences of care.

It is very encouraging for all women and families to know that,when they need them, services come together to provide coordinated and supportive care.

I wish you and your family well for the future and will make sure that the teams in Argyll receive this positive feedback.
