"My overall experience has been fantastic"

About: Royal Oldham Hospital / Maternity

(as a service user),

My overall experience has been fantastic. My waters broke but I did not proceed into labour. I was checked over at the birth centre and then after making an appointment to be induced the following day I was sent home. I came into hospital the following day and started the induction process. This was very daunting and whilst I had read the leaflets and been given thorough information from professionals it was still the Unknown. I was transferred to the labour ward at the end of the second day. I gave birth the following morning.

Every midwife, doctor or member of staff that has been part of my story has been amazing and the care I have received has been faultless. I have felt supported and received excellent advice.

My birth story was not straight forward as my labour did not instantly start following my waters breaking but I can not praise highly enough the treatment I have received.
