Professor Jacqueline Dunkley-Bent OBE, Chief Midwifery Officer for England , and lead midwifery colleagues from London and NHS England, met with teams across London Ambulance Service yesterday (29 March) to learn about how they are improving the care for mothers, their partners and babies.
Consultant midwife Amanda Mansfield and the maternity team spoke with Professor Dunkley-Bent and her team about how they have developed and delivered pioneering educational resources for staff and volunteers - from those working in the control room to patient facing clinicians. This training helps staff and volunteers learn about the potential challenges during birth, and ways they can improve the care and safety for women and their babies.
In return, Prof Dunkley-Bent then presented a prestigious Chief Midwifery Officer’s Gold Award to Ms Mansfield to recognise a lifetime achievement in midwifery.
