Maternity ward triage

Story from nhs.uk

"Maternity ward triage"

About: Pinderfields General Hospital / Maternity care

I would like to point out that most staff at the maternity triage ward are friendly and helpful.

I have been contacted regularly about my pregnancy care, as I have developed gestational diabetes and advised to have an induction.

The low points to this ward is too many people are involved in my care so I'm rather confused and stressed with having scans one week, monitoring the next.

I am now almost 40 weeks and after my last check up (all was well) I was told I would be called to go to hospital for induction.

However the staff are very busy and have no bed space for me.

So I'm left with waiting for natural labour or induction as advised by midwife and consultant.

Thank you for taking the time to post your comments on NHS Choices.

It is encouraging to read how helpful staff have been but I am disappointed that you have been left feeling confused and stressed.

That is not something we would want anyone to experience.

Given that this is a public website, it would not appropriate for me to go into your personal details. Therefore, I wonder if you would be happy to contact our PALS team. The PALS team can be contacted Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays) from 8.30am to 5pm on 01924 542972, or via email pals@midyorks.nhs.uk.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Kind regards

Clare Blackburn
