Maternal death


By: MIDIRS


Based on 0 reviews Created: 11/19/2009

Thankfully, maternal deaths are extremely rare in the United Kingdom. This is the result of many years of painstaking work by professionals, who have constantly reviewed their own working and organisational practices to help identify and reduce risk for women.


A midwife finding themselves in the midst of this catastrophic event needs to have a range of tools and structured support at their disposal. If you are involved in an event of this type, you will be required to assist in both formal and informal reviews.
