"Child health Moora"

About: Moora Community and Child Health Centre Moora Health Service

(as the patient),

I had my first baby in Moora. 

Firstly I was able to have a shared care plan with the lovely midwife Martha for my pregnancy which meant I was able to travel less to midland and receive a more personalised care service close to home throughout my pregnancy.

After having my baby I met with Angela who was our child health nurse. As this was our first baby having a child health who approachable and engaging was paramount. Angela was available and informative to all of my questions. She also ran the local mothers group which now that I live In a different town, I realise is massively important in a country town setting where motherhood can be very isolating. 

I am grateful for the support that I received during such a vulnerable time and hope that the health department continues to support such a valuable service.

Dear moonmb93

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback about the care you received from Martha and Angela. Both are valued staff members and have been part of the Moora community for many years providing excellent care to mum, bubs and families over this time.

Community Midwives and Child Health Nursing are vital parts of the care WA Country Health Service delivers in rural WA. Providing care to rural families during pregnancy and into early childhood enables them to have care closer to home and has flow-on benefits to the wider community for generations to come.

Thank you again for your lovely comments, I will ensure Angela and Martha know how appreciative you are.

Kind regards,

Rachele Ferrari
