Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Health and Social Services
Maternity Care in Wales – A 5 Year Vision for the Future was published in July 2019 and recognises that continuity of carer arrangements offer women and those who support them the opportunity to build a trusting relationship over the pregnancy journey and into parenthood. This is particularly important when a woman may have lost a baby in a previous pregnancy.
All Health Boards have arrangements in place to provide individual support to a woman through a subsequent pregnancy and all women will have a named midwife. Each health board has bereavement services within maternity care that are able to provide bespoke individualised packages of support to women and their families during a subsequent pregnancy.
Work to achieve continuity of carer models for all women and families in pregnancy in Wales has continued throughout the pandemic and a learning event was arranged by the Maternity and Neonatal Network in April 2021 to share best practice.
