About this review Ynglŷn â'r adolygiad hwn

Swansea Bay University Health Board (SBUHB) has commissioned an external independent review of maternity and neonatal services. The review is being overseen by an independent Oversight Panel.

The review consists of several workstreams including a clinical review, a review of current departmental risks, a governance assessment and contextual analysis. Underpinning the review is an engagement programme to gather feedback from families and staff on their experiences of maternity and neonatal services.

This website provides access to different ways for families to get in touch with the review and provide feedback on their experiences; it also provides information about the support available for families.

The clinical team will be undertaking a review of some maternity and neonatal cases and the experiences of families. This will be a phased approach and a letter will be sent to families in advance of the review to ask if they wish to be involved.

This is an independent review; please click here for more information about independence and the governance arrangements for this review.

Use of your information

We want to assure you that we will be very careful with the information you provide to the review team; this includes your data, your personal information and information on your experiences. Your views on the care you have received are vital and we might use your information in a number of different ways, including:

  • Using anonymous quotes within our report (nothing used will be identifiable);
  • Using information gained from your feedback to integrate with the experiences of other women and families, particularly to understand areas where people seem to be saying similar things about their experiences;
  • Using data about your demographic (age, ethnicity, sexual orientation) – if we ask for this information and if you provide this information; and
  • Using information about how to contact you if you have asked us to do so.

If you provide us with information which indicates a safeguarding concern, we may ask for more information or escalate this to the relevant persons or public authority.

If information we hold is requested by a Coroner or by an Order of the Court, we might need to release this, but we will let you know first.

All information that we hold will be kept on our secure systems for two years following the completion of the review process, after which point it will be safely destroyed. If you are concerned at all about how your information might be used, kept or accessed please get in touch with us at: swanseamaternityreview@nicheconsult.co.uk

Mae Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Bae Abertawe (BIPBA) wedi comisiynu adolygiad annibynnol allanol o wasanaethau mamolaeth a newyddenedigol. Mae’r adolygiad yn cael ei oruchwylio gan Banel Goruchwylio annibynnol.

Mae’r adolygiad yn cynnwys sawl ffrwd waith gan gynnwys adolygiad clinigol, adolygiad o risgiau adrannol cyfredol, asesiad llywodraethu a dadansoddiad cyd – destunol. Yn sail i’r adolygiad mae rhaglen ymgysylltu i gasglu adborth gan deuluoedd a staff ar eu profiadau o wasanaethau mamolaeth a newyddenedigol.

Mae’r wefan hon yn darparu mecanweithiau cyfathrebu i deuluoedd gysylltu â’r adolygiad a rhoi adborth ar eu profiadau; mae hefyd yn darparu gwybodaeth am adnoddau cefnogaeth i deuluoedd.

Bydd y tîm clinigol yn cynnal adolygiad o rai achosion mamolaeth a newyddenedigol a phrofiadau teuluoedd. Bydd hwn yn ddull graddol a bydd llythyr yn cael ei anfon at deuluoedd cyn yr adolygiad i ofyn a ydynt yn dymuno cymryd rhan.

Mae hwn yn adolygiad annibynnol; cliciwch yma i gael rhagor o wybodaeth am annibyniaeth a’r trefniadau llywodraethu ar gyfer yr adolygiad hwn.

Defnydd o’ch gwybodaeth

Rydym am eich sicrhau y byddwn yn ofalus iawn gyda’r wybodaeth a roddwch i’r tîm adolygu; mae hyn yn cynnwys eich data, eich gwybodaeth bersonol a gwybodaeth am eich profiadau. Mae eich barn am y gofal a gawsoch yn hanfodol ac efallai y byddwn yn defnyddio’ch gwybodaeth mewn nifer o wahanol ffyrdd, gan gynnwys:

  • Defnyddio dyfyniadau dienw yn ein hadroddiad (ni fydd modd adnabod unrhyw beth a ddefnyddir);
  • Defnyddio gwybodaeth a gafwyd o’ch adborth i integreiddio â phrofiadau menywod a theuluoedd eraill, yn enwedig i ddeall meysydd lle mae’n ymddangos bod pobl yn dweud pethau tebyg am eu profiadau;
  • Defnyddio data am eich demograffig (oedran, ethnigrwydd, cyfeiriadedd rhywiol) – os byddwn yn gofyn am y wybodaeth hon ac os byddwch yn darparu’r wybodaeth hon; ac
  • Defnyddio gwybodaeth am sut i gysylltu â chi os ydych wedi gofyn i ni wneud hynny.

Os byddwch yn rhoi gwybodaeth i ni sy’n nodi pryder diogelu, gallwn ofyn am fwy o wybodaeth neu gyfeirio hyn at y personau perthnasol neu’r awdurdod cyhoeddus.

Os bydd Crwner neu Orchymyn y Llys yn gofyn am wybodaeth sydd gennym, efallai y bydd angen i ni ryddhau hyn, ond byddwn yn rhoi gwybod i chi yn gyntaf.

Bydd yr holl wybodaeth sydd gennym yn cael ei chadw ar ein systemau diogel am ddwy flynedd ar ôl cwblhau’r broses adolygu, ac ar ôl hynny bydd yn cael ei dinistrio’n ddiogel. Os ydych chi’n poeni o gwbl am sut y gallai eich gwybodaeth gael ei defnyddio, ei chadw neu ei chyrchu, cysylltwch â ni yn: swanseamaternityreview@nicheconsult.co.uk
