Community Services
Midwives
The Community Midwives are based at the Haverhill Health Centre. They are now entirely responsible for arranging antenatal care after you have been referred by your doctor. There are regular antenatal classes at the Haverhill Health Centre, but all antenatal clinics are held either at the Rosie Maternity Hospital in Cambridge or the West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds.
After you have delivered, the midwife will look after you and your baby for the first fortnight.
