Maternity care during the Coronavirus pandemic- Survey

​This week, Birth Voices East user reps had a virtual meeting with the Better Birth's midwife Alana. It is Alana's role to seek quality improvement across the maternity services offered by James Paget University Hospital (JPUH) and to do this she needs to hear from pregnant people, new parents and their families that use the service. At this time, whilst we are all experiencing the Coronavirus outbreak, maternity services offered by JPUH, have had to change. Alana said "we understand that we've made lots of changes right now and we'd like to know how women are feeling about this". 

With this in mind the MVP have generated a simple survey, below. The survey is important because it helps the maternity staff know what is working well for pregnant people, new parents and their families, and what areas there are concerns about. We will collate and analyse the feedback we receive and share this back to Alana and the leadership team who design the services you use. You might feel that alone, your opinions and feelings about your maternity care (whether good or bad) would not make a difference, but by speaking as a group, we can make sure your voices are taken seriously and services can be designed to suit the needs of you, the people that are using them. Your response is anonymous and you will not receive a response. we do not ask for any identifiable information, if you would like to receive updates about the work done by Birth Voices East, please fill out the Contact Form and we can add you to our mailing list. Please share the survey.
