My wife had a slight concern about her baby's movements and went in for a visit. Unfortunately the triage system for pregnant women doesn't seem to be working as I couldn't get through after making 30 calls. Yes, 30.
However, after finally managing to get to Burnley and their birthing suite, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed. They did checks in a matter of minutes, reassuring us that everything was fine. A really really lovely nurse was so gentle and cordial in her approach that she helped to relieve a lot of the tension we were feeling.
The room was nice and clean, with the nurses switching on the heater for us to warm the room. We thank them for their efforts.
We do hope they fix the triage system as I think they need some more receptionists to pick up the phone.
