Mums ‘left to get on with it’ after C-sections

Mothers have described being left to recover from caesarean sections with "no support".

ClinicaliQ Brief
  • Postpartum care after caesarean delivery is reportedly inadequate, with mothers experiencing insufficient support during recovery—a potential gap in NHS postnatal services requiring attention.
  • Healthcare providers should review current postoperative protocols for caesarean patients to ensure appropriate pain management, mobility assistance, and wound care guidance are provided.
  • Training and resource allocation for maternity services may need reassessment to ensure mothers receive adequate physical and psychological support in the critical early postoperative period.
