📞 New Midwifery triage telephone number.

The new centralised midwifery triage telephone number will be available from 8am tomorrow (Wednesday 26 February).

If you are pregnant and have concerns or queries about yourself or your baby, please call 01623 676170. Your call will then be triaged appropriately by a triage midwife.

Please note this is not a new number it is the community advice line number on mama passports and BadgerNet. We are simply merging all lines to one number to make it easier and avoid confusion over which number to call. If the other numbers are called they will signpost callers to this number.

It is a FORM of induction.
