A MATERNITY unit set for closure could be given a lifeline offering a service with midwives in charge. Midwife-led units are run by highly-experienced midwives and cater to women assessed as being at low risk of complications that may require a doctor.
They aim to provide a less `medical’ environment in which women can give birth, surrounded by their families, while enjoying one-to-one care from their midwife.
