Mrs S discusses issues faced which led to damning report
A woman whose experience of trying to give birth at home rather than in hospital, which led to a damning report of the Island's maternity services, says women on the Island have 'no choice'.
The report, by the Tynwald Commissioner for Administration, recorded a finding of maladministration over the health department's decision not to offer home births.
Mrs S, as she's known in the report, moved to the Island in 2020 under the impression she would be allowed to give birth at home - according to information on government's website.
Speaking anonymously to Manx Radio she says that wasn't the case:
The Department of Health and Social Care and Manx Care have been approached for comment.
