(as the patient),

My partner and I would like to extend our deepest thanks to the incredible staff at Karratha Maternity and Theatre for the outstanding care we received during the birth of our daughter.

Throughout my pregnancy, I had several visits to the maternity ward for ongoing care and management. Each time, I was treated with warmth, respect, and timely care. The staff consistently went above and beyond to make me feel safe and supported.

We would especially like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our MGP midwife, Laura. Laura played a pivotal role in our journey to becoming parents. While our birth experience didn’t unfold as we had hoped and was at times overwhelming, Laura was a constant source of strength and reassurance. Laura advocated for me every step of the way and ensured both Jake and I felt informed, empowered, and cared for. Her compassion and dedication made an immeasurable difference, and we will always be grateful for her presence during such a significant time in our lives. 

We also want to give a special mention to Layla, who cared for us during the four nights we stayed in hospital. Layla was a calming and supportive presence during those vulnerable hours, always going the extra mile to ensure our comfort and wellbeing.

Our obstetrician, Rachel, was exceptional. Despite requiring an emergency caesarean, I felt fully supported and informed throughout the entire process. Rachel ensured I understood each intervention and allowed me to feel empowered in my birth choices, all while prioritising the safety of both myself and our baby girl.

To the theatre staff, thank you for creating such a positive and uplifting environment. Being able to play music and share laughter in the operating room helped transform what could have been a daunting experience into something truly special. I can honestly say that, thanks to your care, I loved my birth.

We would also like to acknowledge the kitchen and cleaning staff, who were always so friendly and helpful. Their warm attitude and consistent presence contributed to the overall comfort and positive atmosphere during our stay.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have received such compassionate and professional care. My partner and I will always remember the kindness and dedication of the team who helped welcome our little girl into the world.
