Labour During Covid19

"Labour During Covid19"

About: Maternity care (Ward 31) / Labour suite maternity Royal Alexandra Hospital / Community Maternity Unit Royal Alexandra Hospital / Maternity care (Ward 31)

(as the patient),

After being 10 days overdue I finally went into labour naturally. At 4am I got myself to the RAH Paisley to be greeted by Sharon from the blue team of midwives (who was amazing the full time) at the Cmu department. I was then checked over and moved quickly to the Ruby suite which was set out with candles and soothing twinkle lights.

Sharon made me feel relaxed even in these uncertain times and provided me with gas n air. Baby was born with no complications. Afterwords the care we had was great, midwives made us tea and toast & helped me take a shower a few hours after giving birth. I was home later on the day after myself and baby were checked over and good to go.

Thank you to the community midwives especially the blue team, Holly, Rachel, Stephanie & Sharon who delivered our baby.

Dear CovidBirth

Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback in regards to the time you spent in the Royal Alexandra Hospital Maternity Unit.

Firstly congratulations on the birth of your baby I'm glad there were no complications and you are both now safe at home enjoying each others company.

It was great to hear you had such a pleasant experience while attending the unit and all the staff made you feel at ease and provided great nursing care both before the birth and after.

I will be sure to pass on your comments to all the staff involved especially Holly, Rachel, Stephanie and Sharon in the Blue Team who I'm sure will be as humbled as I was to read your story.

Kind regards

Kevin
