Improving maternity and neonatal safety isn’t about creating more data, it’s about making existing data accessible, usable, and trusted.
In part two of this blog series, John McCann moves from challenge to practical action, outlining five guiding principles to help NHS organisations improve access to critical maternity and neonatal history.
From enabling a longitudinal view of care to reducing reliance on workarounds, this blog explores how organisations can take meaningful steps towards safer, more confident decision-making — without waiting for a “perfect” solution.
If access to historical data is still a challenge in your organisation, this is well worth a read.
