‘To be recognised for providing the highest quality of care by putting women and their families at the heart of what we do. We will work in partnership with women with courage, compassion and kindness.’

The Princess Alexandra Hospital Trust provides maternity services from early pregnancy continuing right up until after the birth, for around 4,000 babies each year.

We can offer three choices of place to give birth, including at home, in our Princess Alexandra birthing unit – a home-from-home environment run by midwives which is situated within our maternity unit, or on our labour ward supported by a team of midwives and doctors, all providing personalised and safe maternity care.

At the Princess Alexandra Hospital, we understand that during pregnancy, right up until after birth, there are many choices to make and questions to answer. This app has been introduced to provide additional support for you and your family to have the best possible experience during this important time.

We recognise how important it is for staff to understand and discuss your choices relating to pregnancy, birth and early parenthood, and would encourage you to share your preferences with them. These can be adapted and changed according to you and your baby’s needs at any time.

Our maternity staff proudly uphold our Trust values, providing care that is respectful, caring, responsible and committed, and we recognise this is positively reflected in the service we provide.

We are now in the fortunate position to be making plans for our new state-of–the-art hospital building, which will include a new maternity unit, which is being developed for 2025.
