Consultant Midwife Cathy Falvey-Browne at Barts Health NHS Trust has won a Cavell Star Award for going above and beyond for her patients.
Colleague and Associate Director of Midwifery and Nursing Giuseppe Labriola explained why Cathy is a worth winner,
“Cathy champions midwifery and midwifery-led care with such kindness, thoughtfulness and compassion, that I would say that when you meet her, you would definitely want to be cared for by her.
“There is currently a birth reflections clinic that Cathy runs which provides support and debrief after a birth experience. Cathy has identified that this is not enough for the women we care for so a birth trauma clinic has also been set up with a midwife trained in providing additional restorative support and a package of sessions to work through their experience.
“On top of all of this, Cathy works over and beyond her hours like many of us do and I would like to recognise her hard work at Barts Health NHS Trust.”
