Admitted in hospital for the birth of my baby boy.

Story from nhs.uk

"Admitted in hospital for the birth of my baby boy."

About: Tameside General Hospital

I was called in on Friday 4th April 2014 to be induced. I was really happy with the care from my midwife in the anti-natal department. I was then moved upstairs to ward 27 where the midwife that was in charge of me was also really nice. The doctors acted really quick as I was rushed down to the labour room then into theatre where I had to have an emergency c-section. While I was recovering from after my operation I was really looked after in the labour ward. I was in hospital for 3 days and the night staff were really helpful, they asked me to just buzz them when I needed them for anything and they also helped me with my baby. There was a student midwife along side a trained midwife who really did look after me. The day staff were also helpful and friendly. As I had a very bad experience in 2009 when I gave birth to my daughter i didn't want to choose Tameside hospital this time but I took my chances and was really impressed with the care and services from this department. I would recommend this department to others.
