Lucky everything went ok..as they had no room for her...BD

A WOMAN about to give birth was twice turned away from the maternity ward at the Princess of Wales Hospital because there was no room. Now Elizabeth Jones and her partner Anthony Jones of Penybryn, Bryntirion, are calling for an inquiry into the running of maternity services by the Bro Morgannwg NHS Trust.

The trust has confirmed that the maternity department at Bridgend was closed for 12 hours last Thursday. There have been 11 closures of the unit so far this year. The drama began at 7am last Thursday when 24-year-old Ms Jones went into labour.

“We went to the hospital but the maternity department was jam-packed,” she said.  “I was told there were no doctors available, as they were all dealing with patients, and there were no beds.
