Maternity Care is provided by Obstetric Consultants, their teams and midwifery staff.
Luton and Dunstable University Hospital Maternity Unit is a referral centre for complicated pregnancies, but the hospital also offers midwifery care to low risk women via community midwives and low risk birth in the hospital or at home plus a consultant led service for local women who are not low-risk.
Referrals can be made via Choose & Book or by letter directly addressed to:

To families of all our patients, we wanted to give a reminder that sadly, at both Bedford and the Luton & Dunstable Hospital, we are still unable to allow any visitors on site, unless there are exceptional circumstances, for example in maternity or children’s departments, or for those patients who are receiving palliative treatment at the end of their lives, on a case-by-case basis.
At Bedford we will call one designated member of family every day between 1.30pm and 4.30pm with a daily phone update. Those who miss a call back during this time and are concerned can contact the helpline on 01234 730500.
For the Luton & Dunstable, we are offering a dedicated Next of Kin helpline for family members who want to check up on their loved ones – please nominate one family member to call 01582 718884 between 8am and 6pm.
