Lincolnshire maternity services should be safe, personalised, kind, professional and family friendly. Every woman should have access to information to enable her to make decisions about her care and where she and her baby can access support that is centered around their individual needs and circumstances
To realise this vision, the Local Maternity System have identified four key principles which will guide service development:
1. Promoting Safe and Effective care
2. Improving Perinatal Mental Health
3. Continuity of Carer and Personalisation – models of care, focused on improving safety and clinical outcomes, developed around women, babies and families based on their needs and decisions, where they have genuine informed choice.
4. Development of the workforce, multidisciplinary training and collaborative working.
