Documentation
Description:
NHS Digital has been collaborating with midwives, obstetricians, nurses and other clinicians to create the maternity record standard, which relates to direct patient care, describing the optimal data structure and format of a maternity record. This new information standard, DCB3066, provides for local implementation of this maternity record within maternity services and supplier systems, to enable the future exchange of information between maternity providers. This will ensure that both health and care professionals and maternity service users have the necessary information in the right place at the right time, to improve the quality and safety of maternity care. The standard will also support maternity service users by enabling more personalised care, as well as helping midwives and clinicians to provide holistic care. test
