Notice Title
Saving Babies Lives Care Bundle Version 2 Evaluation
Notice Description
In March 2019 SBLCBv2 was published to provide detailed information for providers and commissioners of maternity care on how to further reduce perinatal mortality across England. It is clear SBLCBv2 is now a major innovation in the delivery of maternity care in England. It is therefore vital that an independent evaluation is undertaken to understand its effectiveness, the impact on maternity services, the women who use them and any unintended consequences. Maternity is one of NHSE&I's priorities and is a key element of the NHS Long-Term Plan.
