Abstract

The Better Births national maternity review (NHS England 2016) has been gratefully received as a chance to improve maternity services to support women-centred care for better birth experiences. As Baroness Cumberlege stated (NHS England 2016) the commitment, determination and passion from health professionals to improve outcomes for women, babies and their families have been crystal clear. Therefore this is a perfect opportunity to engage and encourage caseloading in maternity units as a sustainable and viable model of care which supports women and promotes midwives’ satisfaction.
