Postnatal care
Following the birth of your baby, postnatal care is provided in single en-suite rooms on the Lansdell Suite.To add to your comfort each room is equipped with a television, radio, telephone, hairdryer and complimentary toiletries. All meals and non-alcoholic drinks are also included in the standard package price.
The dedicated team of midwives and support staff will support you in caring for and feeding your baby. They will give you advice on breastfeeding and can also provide advice on bottle-feeding if required.
During your stay, your obstetrician will arrange for a paediatrician to visit you and examine your baby. This will give you the opportunity to discuss your baby’s health and future development.
Following your discharge from the Lansdell Suite a midwife will also visit you at home until your baby is 10 days old or up to 28 days if required. This will either be your named individual midwife or your consultant obstetrician who will arrange this for you prior to your discharge. Your midwife will then discharge you into the care of your Health Visitor and General Practitioner.
