This app replaced the previous maternity notes folder.
You can view and update your own care record from your smartphone, tablet or computer. You can also register that you are pregnant directly with us via our website.
You can access all our maternity patient leaflets via the app (as well as on the hospital website as usual), and your midwife can send you relevant resources directly.
The app is available in 11 languages - you can select your preferred language in the app.
Your medical notes remain confidential and can only be seen by you and healthcare professionals involved in your care. Access to the app is password protected and meets strict NHS data security standards.
How to access your digital notes

Badger Notes - Access your healthcare records
When you book a pregnancy, your midwife will give you a passphrase to enter in the app to make a new care record for that pregnancy.
If you choose not to access your records digitally, your midwife can print them and give you a copy to keep. Please speak to your midwife if you have concerns about accessing the app.
If you already have paper notes for your pregnancy, please carry your notes folder for the rest of your pregnancy: however, after 23 January 2024 the Maternity team will document all new information on BadgerNotes.
