Re-opening of the Aveta Birth Centre at Cheltenham General Hospital:In response to the continued reduction in community transmission and falling hospital admissions related to COVID-19, we're delighted to announce that the Aveta Birth Centre at Cheltenham General Hospital will be re-opening next week.The centre was converted to a temporary surgical ward during the COVID-19 peak in January to enable urgent cancer surgery to continue. We'd like to thank families and colleagues for their patience and flexibility in accommodating this temporary change.We are now informing patients of the good news and will share an exact date with you in due course. If you have any specific questions relating to your birthing plans, please contact the clinical team directly.Restrictions aimed at reducing the spread of the virus still apply. As currently, your partner or birth supporter can attend all scans and labour and birth and although some restrictions remain for routine antenatal appointments, your support partner can attend these appointments virtually.

We have had a few queries recently asking about the different options for birthing within a hospital unit in Gloucestershire and what facilities they each have. I thought it might be useful to share this page, as it has virtual tours of each unit. Scroll down the page to the heading 'Wards' and then you can click through each option and view the videos. www.gloshospitals.nhs.uk/our-services/services-we-offer/maternity/ ... See MoreSee Less

Hi and thank you to everyone who watched the live chat this morning and asked questions. We will be going back to them later on, to give a written answer and take forward any we didn’t know about at the time. I also want to clarify, that support partners are able to visit the maternity wards, once they have a negative test. They will be tested daily and will then be able to visit the ward for the duration of visiting times. Sorry for the confused answer to this. ... See MoreSee Less
