GEORGE ELIOT HOSPITAL NUNEATON: MAINSTREAMING ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES

Early day motion 1868, tabled 7 June 2011 by David Tredinnick (Conservative). Signed by 2 members.

That this House congratulates Kevin McGee, Chief Executive, and the doctors and staff at the George Eliot NHS Trust, in particular midwife Sue Mousley, on their mainstreaming of alternative therapies; notes that over a six-year period aromatherapy has been effective in assisting with childbirth and both ante and postnatal care; further notes that it has helped clinical staff focus on the more difficult births and believes the service to be cost effective; further notes that there is a record of good patient outcomes and good patient experiences in the hospital and it is greatly appreciated by the residents of Nuneaton, North Warwickshire, West and South Leicestershire; and calls on the Government to look at this as a model of good practice for other hospitals across England.

Signatures by party: Conservative 2.
