The Jane Crookall Maternity Unit is to the relaunch of the Rainbow Care Service.
The service is offered to any birthing parent who is with child and who has previously lost a baby at or above 16 weeks.
The aim of these antenatal appointments is to give people extra time and support throughout their pregnancy and a named contact for them to connect with.
Rainbow Care Relaunch
Chasing Rainbows Charity is providing the Rainbow Care Service with lanyards and bracelets to be worn to appointments, so that those who have experienced baby loss are immediately identifiable to colleagues (if they wish to be).
The relaunch of this service coincides with Baby Loss Awareness Week which runs from October 9 to 15 and is in its 22nd year.
The week is a time for bereaved parents and families from all over the world to commemorate the lives of their babies that were taken too soon.
Noble’s Hospital will be illuminated blue and pink during this week in support and there will be a table set up in Noble’s Foyer with bereavement information available.
