Donation '˜will help babies on maternity unit'
Members donated £1,158 to pay for a monitor which beeps less than more traditional models, while still alerting staff to any issues.
Ward sister, Louise Paramel, said: “The monitor allows the baby to move around and it will pick up anything serious. We’ve already had a few parents commenting on how good the monitor is.”
