Miscarriage with amazing supportive care

"Miscarriage with amazing supportive care"

About: Armadale Hospital / Emergency Department Armadale Hospital / Obstetrics & Gynaecology Outpatient Clinic

(as the patient),

I went to ED at Armadale hospital recently and was treated amazingly. I had returned the next day as I had a miscarriage at my work and again amazing care.  I was then booked in for a dilation and curettage (D&C) for the miscarriage.

The gynaecologist was lovely and the midwife too. I cried a lot but just the care package with the Teddy bear, tea bag, candle and counsellor book for me and my partner to go through is amazing. I believe the aftercare in this hospital is the best. They even just come in and have a chat with you. It's what makes your stay comfortable and if you need to cry they are there to comfort you.

I am so happy with this hospital, I can't thank you enough for everything.

Dear deltadh45,

I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your experience at a time that I am sure you must be hurting. I am very proud to hear you describe the kindness and compassion shown by our doctors and midwives.

Your story is very powerful as it truly demonstrates that empathy and compassion can make a significant difference to the quality of care we provide. It is the “chats” and the little things such as the “care package” that ensure we treat every patient as an individual and in a personalised way. It is great to hear the team had such a positive impact on your time with us.

I have passed on your thanks and kind words to the teams who will appreciate knowing they were able to provide you and your partner comfort during such a difficult time.

Thank you again for contacting us, and I wish you and your partner all the best.

Kind regards

Di Barr
