The website includes information on:
- Maternity services across the trust, including a video tour
- Care provision during pregnancy, labour and postnatal care
- Support services available
- A 'choosing us' section, which includes an online self-referral form
- Telephone numbers and contact names for members of the multidisciplinary team.
Colette Mannion, head of midwifery and gynaecology, said:" I am delighted to launch this new website for maternity services which is the culmination of a significant amount of work from our maternity services staff. We are also proud of and grateful to the new mothers and their babies who were involved in the development of the website. I am confident that it will be an excellent resource for mothers and their families throughout their pregnancy journey."
