The Community Midwives are a small team, based at the practice, able to give advice on all options of care throughout your pregnancy, labour and offer care at home for up to 28 days following the birth. They also provide a 24 hour emergency service. Their philosophy of care is that the relationship between mother and midwife is fundamental to good midwifery care. You are able to have an appointment with the midwives without seeing your GP first.
