24/7 MATERNITY HEALTH ADVICE LINE
Should you have any health-related queries during your pregnancy, you can call the 24/7 Maternity Health Advice line on 0860 999 121. This telephone service is nurse-led and has been developed to provide our pregnant members with optimum advice.
It is a purely medical advice line, no diagnosis or prescription will be given.
DEDICATED CLINICAL CARE ADVISORS
A maternity nurse/midwife will call you at certain key stages throughout your pregnancy. This is to support and advise you on how to look after your health while expecting. You will be reminded about supplementation, diet and follow-up visits.
ONLINE ANTENATAL CLASSES
From the moment you register with the Bonitas Maternity Programme, you’ll have access to online antenatal classes to prepare you for the
birth, your stay in hospital and what to expect when you go home. These classes will be available twice monthly and you can access them by
logging onto the Bonitas website with your membership number.
WEEKLY STAGE APPROPRIATE SMSs
During your pregnancy, you’ll receive a weekly SMS appropriate to the specific stage in your pregnancy.
This will help you track your baby’s development and learn how and why your body is changing during the weeks of your pregnancy.
WEB CONTENT
On the Bonitas website, you’ll be able to find a series of articles regarding common health issues during pregnancy.
You can read these articles at your own time and convenience.
PREGNANCY EDUCATION EMAILS
You’ll also receive emails on a weekly basis for the duration of your pregnancy to help you prepare for the birth.
These emails will be stage appropriate and cover topics such as preparing for childbirth, normal delivery vs caesarean,
breast care, breast feeding, nutrition, etc.
