Commendable support and dedication

"Commendable support and dedication"

About: Royal Oldham Hospital / Maternity

(as a service user),

After suffering a miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy and a stillbirth at 28 weeks and delivering my little princess at Oldham Hospital to find that I was pregnant in March 2017 was a time of exciting and anxiety. I have had all my prenatal care at Oldham which was good, a recommendation I would have would be in relation to the butterfly stickers and maybe seeing the same care providers as at every two weekly appointments I saw a different doctor, midwife or consultant. I do not want to feedback negatively however as the care I received from every midwife on the antenatal ward and labour ward has been exemplary. All I can say about the support, dedication, care and commitment to myself and my precious son has been commendable I would like to say the warmest of thanks to Jess who safely delivered out baby boy, Beth for your professional and attentive care and Fay for your support in the induction and breastfeeding.

We ended up staying in hospital for five days and nights and when we left we felt supported, informed and bets of all with a healthy and happy baby. This is all thanks to all the midwives,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of our Maternity Service. I can only presume that the pregnancy this time was very stressful due to the loss of your little girl at 28weeks in your previous pregnancy. We always strive to provide care that is safe and compassionate so I am very pleased to hear that this was your experience of our midwifery teams. I will share your story with Jess, Beth and Fay as I know that they will be delighted. In addition I will share your comments about the Antenatal Service with the senior management team as we always welcome suggestions on how we can improve our service.

Once again thank you for your feedback and congratulations on the birth of your baby boy!
