Royal Colleges issue recommendations for the safe organisation of care during labour and birth
New
recommendations on standards for the safe organisation of care during childbirth
have been issued by the Royal Colleges of Anaesthetists, Midwives, Obstetricians and Gynaecologists,
and Paediatrics and Child Health. The
joint document, Safer Childbirth: Minimum Standards for the Organisation and
Delivery of Care in Labour, provides clear and concise information about
the roles and essential minimum staffing levels required to support and deliver
safe care to women in labour and their babies.
