Community postnatal contacts
You will be provided with a telephone number for your community midwife team before you go home from the maternity unit. Please make sure you have this contact number before you leave.
For any urgent concerns with your physical and emotional health, you can call the maternity triage/assessment unit where you had your baby (up to 28 days after birth). You can also speak to your GP or attend your local urgent care centre or A & E department. The NHS 111 service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
If you are being discharged to a community midwifery service belonging to a different maternity unit than the one you gave birth in, you should be given the appropriate contact details. Below is a list of contact numbers for the community midwife teams across LMS title
