The Maternity Transformation Programme has identified nine areas following recommendations outlined in the national maternity review Better Births. These areas include supporting local transformation, promoting good practice for safer care and improving access to perinatal mental health services.
NHS England is now asking local areas to act as Early Adopters to test a combination of all areas outlined in the programme. Their experiences will pave the way for national roll-out of initiatives, and help develop local change, through establishing Local Maternity Systems to ensure women and babies receive safe, more personalised care that suits the needs of the local community.
New community hubs will be developed to act as 'one-stop-shops' providing antenatal and postnatal services, alongside other health and social services place. They will also ensure fast referral to the right expert if a woman and her baby need more specialised services.
Sarah-Jane Marsh, newly-appointed Chair of the Maternity Transformation Board, said: "Every mother, baby and pregnancy is special and unique – and deserves the very best care. Better Births has given us a powerful blueprint for how we can now move towards safer, more personalised maternity services in England for each and every woman and baby that relies on us.
"We are resolute in our determination to implement this vision and move forward at pace. We have already identified seven parts of the country that will pioneer choice and personalisation, and are now calling on more local areas to play a vital role in delivering the ambition by testing new approaches to maternity services across the country."
NHS England is working with a range of organisations including the Royal Colleges, NHS Improvement, Department of Health, Health Education England and Public Health England to implement the changes envisaged in Better Births.
