“affected women will be informed about the possible need to move the birthing part of their journey as they prioritise "safe patient care"”
“We greatly appreciate the flexibility, commitment and dedication of our entire maternity team. Staff have worked additional hours and made every effort to sustain services at both hospitals.”
“We can't always screen for those complications and see them coming, so we need to be assured that should those complications arise, there's rapid access to an adequately skilled senior population of clinicians who can deal with that appropriately, quickly and safely”
“However, recent staffing changes have placed the service under significant pressure, and additional support is required if inpatient maternity care is to continue safely across both sites.”
