I gave birth at Warrington Hospital on 15th January 2019 & the post natal care on C23 was great. The midwives & care assistants were friendly & professional, nothing was too much trouble. I couldn’t get out of bed after an epidural & they were so helpful with my baby, and subsequently in getting me up & moving when I regained sensation in my legs. This is a far cry from the treatment I received from the C23 staff in 2017 (I wrote a review at the time)- suffice to say this time round my experience was so much better! I was dreading my time on the post natal ward, and although it’s still far too hot, noisy & crowded, this time round the staff were second to none & I felt much more comfortable there than I had done previously. Special thanks to Rachael Flynn & Pauline from the ELCS team, they looked after me & my baby so well, and I’ll be forever grateful that they helped me to get up & on my feet, allowing me to go home to recover not even 24 hours after my c section. Another special mention to the ever wonderful Dr Kate Alldred- she has delivered both of my babies & from the minute i met her in ante natal clinic I’ve always felt like I’ve been in the absolute best hands. Down to earth, reassuring, knowledgeable, funny- she’s just an absolute star & the ladies & babies of Warrington are so lucky to have her! Negatives: lack of space, lack of privacy, noisy, hot.
