یہ تقریب ماں اور نوزائیدہ بچوں کے ماہرین کو یکجا کرتی ہے۔
50 سے زائد مندوبین نے حال ہی میں مقامی ماں اور نوزائیدہ نظام (LMNS) کی سکیورٹی اور معیار کے بارے میں دن میں شرکت کی۔ یہ تعاون یافتہ تقریب اس مقصد کے لیے تھی کہ ابھرتے ہوئے سکیورٹی کے موضوعات کی نشاندہی کی جائے اور آئندہ سال کے لیے LMNS اور اس کے ہنگامی نگہداشت فراہم کرنے والے اداروں کے کام کے لیے اس کے لیے حکمت عملی اور اہداف وضع کیے جائیں۔.
Attendees included executive sponsors and senior clinical leaders including, directors of midwifery and senior midwifery management, obstetric consultants, neonatologists, midwives, public health colleagues and the Maternity Voice Partnership.
The key themes identified were-
- patient information sharing- how to best do this for the population, looking at a range of mediums including differing social media platforms, languages etc.
- how to tackle inequity in outcomes for mothers from black and minority ethnic communities including through addressing racism and cultural competence
- clinical escalation- how to ensure this happens effectively and the utilisation of tools to support this
- triage services- working towards a standardised approach across Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire maternity services to reduce unwarranted variation to the pregnant population
Rosi Shepherd, Chief Nursing Officer at the NHS Integrated Care Board for Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire, said:
“We are passionate about the quality and safety of our maternity and neonatal services, so events like this are important for us to discuss the latest research, new ideas and different ways of working. Not only was there the chance to listen to presentations from key speakers, it was a positive networking event with the opportunity to chat with colleagues face to face which is a rarity in our current climate.”
