The Royal Devon has performed well in the 2025 CQC Maternity Survey.

Patients told us their overall experience was positive and praised us for having supportive midwives who listened, easy to understand and helpful information, and good follow up support after they’d left hospital.

Respondents did tell us that we could be doing more to enable their partners and other support people involved in their care to stay with them as much as they wanted. This feedback will be further explored through our patient experience governance.

Thanks to everyone who shared their experiences, and to our incredible staff for all their hard work and commitment to providing great patient care.

*Maternity Triage telephone service*

Due a to necessary system update there will be a very brief shutdown to the triage telephone service for approximately 5 minutes which is scheduled for 09:00 on Wednesday 3rd December.
There will be no change to the contact number should you need to contact triage with any concerns at any time.

Well done to those that spotted the deliberate mistake. Now amended! 🙂
