The Maternity matrons are available to support our midwifery and obstetric team and uphold the high standards of care given.

The midwives that work between the Day Assessment Unit, Bath Birthing Centre and Mary Ward are skilled in the care of women with any concerns or complications in their pregnancy, women in labour, women after birth and the newborn.

Community midwives work across various areas looking after women and their families from conception, to birth and during the postnatal period. They facilitate appointments and births at home and in the Birthing Centres.

Through the Better births initiative, we have created our Continuity of Care Teams. These teams work together in small numbers to ensure you have continuity throughout your pregnancy, birth and aftercare.
