Midwife Care offers women the opportunity to access additional midwifery care to supplement their NHS care. I believe that women can enjoy the benefits of my services as an Independent Midwife, whilst you as the woman, still make use of your local NHS service. By choosing Midwife Care, you do not opt out of the NHS. As an Independent Midwife, I have the same referral rights as an NHS midwife and am able to arrange Obstetric or Paediatric referral if this is required. All your pregnancy and postnatal screening blood tests and scans can be accessed through the NHS.
