Together with the local community midwives and the doctors and midwives at Treliske Hospital, we will support you through your Pregnancy.
If you are pregnant simply ring the Midwife Team at West Cornwall Hospital on 01736 874180 or click the button below and complete a Contact Form and the midwives will contact you directly.
They will organise all of your ongoing care for your pregnancy. They will explain how often you will be seen after that and what tests (such as blood tests & scans of your unborn baby) are available.
Our Health Visitor will also get in touch with you and will visit you so that she can get to know you before the birth of your child.
If you want to have your baby at home, discuss this with your Midwife. The nearest hospital delivery facilities are in Treliske Hospital in Truro, where there is now a new Birthing Centre with birthing pools. There is also a midwife run unit in Helston, which has a birthing pool.
If you think you may be pregnant and are using street drugs such as heroin then please ensure you tell the doctor or midwife straight away.
