Jane Crookall Maternity Unit
The Jane Crookall Maternity Unit is the only maternity unit on the Island. The first dedicated Island service was realised in 1938 and interestingly also named the Jane Crookall maternity unit. This was possible due to a donation from the Philanthropist Arthur Crookall in memory of his first wife. Three moves later the name remains the same due to an Island wide vote.
Antenatal Self Referral
Ideally you should refer yourself for antenatal care when you are 6 to 7 weeks pregnant. Sometimes you only find out you are pregnant after this time, so please refer yourself as soon as you can. Please use the form below to complete a referral to the antenatal team. Once we have received your referral, we will send you an appointment to attend for booking for antenatal care.
Meet the team
Head of Midwifery
Mrs Regan Baggley
We are happy to introduce Mrs Regan Baggley as our Head of Midwifery.
Regan joined Noble's in 2004 as a newly qualified midwife, became Senior Midwife in 2021 and began her role as Head of Midwifery in 2024.
Regan developed an interest in Diabetes in pregnancy where she assisted with the establishment of the multi-disciplinary Diabetic Antenatal Clinic for the women of the Isle of Man. Prior to commencing her Senior Midwife position, Regan was the Ward Manager for the Jane where she focused on developing high quality inpatient services. This became particularly important when inpatient services had to be remodelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Manx Care is mandated by The Department of Health & Social Care (DHSC) to provide healthcare for the people of the Isle of Man. Persons who are not ordinarily resident in the Island are not automatically entitled to be provided with the full range of NHS services free of charge. However services provided under Part 2 of the NHS Act 2001 (Primary Care Services) such as ambulance transport; treatment in the Emergency Department (ED); treatment in the Minor Injuries Unit (MIU) at Ramsey District Cottage Hospital; and The Manx Emergency Doctor Service (MEDS) the 'out of hours' emergency doctor service will continue to be provided to Overseas Visitors without any charge other than statutory charges such as prescription charges usually paid by Isle of Man residents.
Also treatment for certain diseases where it is necessary to protect the wider public health is free from charge to an Overseas Visitor as well as treatment given in, or as the result or a referral from, a sexually transmitted diseases clinic; and admission to hospital where a patient is detained under the Mental Health Act 1998.
An Overseas Visitor becomes chargeable when they are accepted as an Inpatient or referred to a service as an Outpatient.
