Princess Royal Hospital Wrekin Midwife-Led Unit - Enter and View Visit Report
Following the Maternity Services review and reconfiguration, we wanted to ask patients about their views and experiences of the Wrekin Midwife-Led Maternity Unit.
Summary
We wanted to learn about:
- Patients levels of confidence in the maternity services and care, following a Review and Reconfiguration of Maternity Services
- The experiences of relatives/visitors
- Observe the Patients and relatives/visitors engaging with the staff and their surroundings
- Examples of good care practice
Key Findings
- We visited the unit and found it to be safe for mother and baby, with a door entry-system controlling both entrances
- Patients told us how well they were supported throughout their labour, and that their care was exceptional; they had confidence in their midwife
- Patients said the care they received throughout their pregnancy ‘was amazing’, they felt ‘listened to’, and that they could make a choice for their antenatal care with their midwife
- Staff told us that they enjoyed working in the unit, and that every shift was different. They felt that they were fully supported by management and the hospital, and that on-going training and skills development kept all staff current to the needs
