Are you a new or expectant Redbridge mum?
A number of RedbridgeLINk members have expressed concerns with local maternity services; this also echoes recent stories in the press.
If you have an experience of these services, whether good or bad, then we would like you to take part in a discussion group to look at how maternity facilities in the area are working.
Any concerns raised can then be reported back to the hospitals and the Independent Reconfiguration Panel, which is reviewing the proposals for King George Hospital.
The following are examples of questions to be discussed:
? What measures can be taken to ensure that these incidents do not happen again?
? How are people supported people when things do go wrong?
? Are you aware of the Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) and the Independent Complaints procedures?
? Do you know about the role of the Care Quality Commission?
? What affect do you think the closure of the maternity services at King Georges Hospital will have?
If you would like to share your thoughts in a safe and confidential environment, please come along to our meeting on Thursday 26th May, from 10am ? 12pm, at RedbridgeLINk, Forest House, 16-20 Clements Road, Ilford.
Places must be booked in advance. Register your attendance by emailing [email protected] or calling 020 8553 1236.
Refreshments will be provided.
