Maternity improvement resource

What we look for

Well-led

Partnerships and communities

• How do local maternity services compare nationally for the occurrence reporting and investigation of safety incidents?
• What is the integrated care board (ICB) involvement in the investigation or oversight of maternity safety incidents? What assurance does the integrated care system (ICS) have that ICB and provider governance structures support reporting of and learning from maternity safety incidents?
• How is the system assured that deaths, including maternity and neonates, are reviewed using approved tools?
• How do governance structures take account of people’s experiences in learning and improvement of maternity systems?
