"Impressed with postnatal ward and labour ward"

About: Royal Oldham Hospital / Maternity

(as a service user),

Good experience.

Spacious wards and really impressed with postnatal ward and labour ward.

Good facilities and well accommodating for partners too- eg reclining chairs for partners to sleep beside and access to snacks and drinks for partners too.

Labour ward was nice and big/spacious. One downside I felt like there was not enough beds available- eg very busy and felt rushed to be moved from labour ward. Overall experience was good

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of our maternity service. I am pleased to hear that overall you were very impressed. I will share your comments with the team as I know that they will be pleased to hear them. At The Royal Oldham Hospital we recognise that it is important to enable partners to stay and feel welcome so I am very glad to hear that you found this to be the case. I am sorry that you felt rushed to be moved from the labour ward, please accept our apologies if this caused you any distress. If you wish to discuss this further please email me directly at:
