National maternity safety strategy

The Government asked all organisations with maternity services to make a commitment to contribute towards achieving the national ambition and improve maternity outcomes. The Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust maternity services are part of this National Maternity Safety Strategy and has implemented a Maternity Safety Improvement Plan to support the national Maternity Safety Ambition.
