"Maternity care during lockdown"

About: Royal Alexandra Hospital / Maternity care (Ward 31)

(as the patient),

I gave birth to my daughter, in the RAH Paisley at the beginning of April 2020. As a first time mum, being induced and giving birth during the corona virus pandemic was understandably very daunting, especially knowing my husband would only be present during active labour. I was overwhelmed by the exceptional level of care I received at RAH maternity, from midwives, doctors, health care assistants to cleaners- all the staff were incredibly kind and attentive. Due to complications we stayed for 4 nights and then again were readmitted 3 weeks later. I can't thank all the staff for everything they did to look after us, they went above and beyond to ensure we were so very well looked after. Thank you!

Hello F Col,

Congratulations on the birth of your little girl! I hope you are all doing very well now.

Thank you for sharing this lovely post with us on Care Opinion. I have passed it over to my colleagues at RAH, who are delighted to receive such lovely feedback and say it has provided a real boost to them.

Being in hospital is understandably a worrying time and I am sorry that your husband was unable to be there for the whole time, but it is very reassuring to know that the staff looked after you so well and were so kind and attentive. Thank you again for sharing this very kind feedback with us.

All the very best,

Rachel
