The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
A maternity unit is giving women and their partners the opportunity to help shape and improve its services.
The department at Peterborough City Hospital is working with local healthcare partners to launch a maternity services liaison committee, a forum where service users can give feedback on their experiences. Women who have had a baby in the last three years or are hoping to start a family soon are invited to attend an information session on Friday to find out how they can get involved.
The session is also open to partners and will be held on Friday (Jan 13) from 10am to noon in the Denis Bracey Suite.
Fran Stephens, head of midwifery at Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, said: “We are looking for women and partners from all backgrounds to act as representatives on the committee.”
Attendees will be given the opportunity to ask any questions and register their interest in becoming a member of the committee.
Anyone who is unable to attend but would like information about joining the Maternity Services Liaison Committee, should contact Fran via email at fran.stephens@pbh-tr.nhs.uk.
