Accessing birth/medical records??? how???

[nellnell]

Awesome! Thanks guys, just called the hospital and they are sending the forms out now.

Now just another silly question about the records. I received the forms but it says I need to clearly describe the documents required then says

"please note: as a matter of routine, information such as medication charts and observation charts are not copied unless they are specifically requested."

I dont care about medication charts as I had minimal, but is your labour considered as 'observation charts? Also do they copy CTG results as well - as I probably had about 24 hours worth done - so heaps?

Anything else I should be asking for?

Thanks in advance

[nellnell]

Anyone? Please

[Eenee]

yes I would also specifically ask for the observation charts- as this is also a form of observation IYKWIM?

[nellnell]

thank em.. yeah I get that

Would Syntocinon not fall into the realm of medication? I'd get that chart as well just in case as it should have the dosages of synto you were given at what times as this seems pertinent to your query.

oh yeah - thanks heaps.
