Listen to patients I was being induced labour and laboured on my own for 8 hours telling hour after hour of my pain and discomfort was offered a bath and paracetamol when I was probably about 4-6cm dilated. I was in the communal inducement ward writhing around in agony but also aware that two other women were just a curtain away so trying to be as quiet as I could. One staff nurse named Fiona was unprofessionally rude and crass with me took no care in my pains or contractions. When someone finally checked me internally 8 hours after my waters broke I was 8cm dilated and rushed to the birthing suite from that point care was excellent so such a shame I’ve had to give a terrible review. Complained after to my local midwife so far have had no response or contact to elaborate. You have to improve ur inducement process i would go as far to say I was tortured by lack of care and terrible attitudes when I was checked on every 4 hours also could have put my baby at so many risks! Lucky she arrived safe and healthy thanks to the efforts of a fantastic few in the end.
