Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS Trust aspired to increase and maintain its focus on normality in childbirth in its two large maternity units. It achieved this by employing two Leads for Women Centred Care Midwives. This article describes some of the measures taken to promote normal childbirth and empower women and midwives to re-focus on the normal aspects of giving birth. Such measures include; setting up a normal birth focus group for staff, developing study days and a normal birth skills package for staff, work to de-medicalise the birthing environment, one to one care in labour audits, active birth workshops for women and their birthing partners and virtual tours of the maternity unit. The authors hope this may give midwives and staff in other obstetric units ideas and ways in which they can focus on normalising childbirth for all women they care for.
诺丁汉大学医院国民保健服务信托基金希望在其两个大型产科病房加强并持续关注正常分娩。为此,该信托基金聘请了两名以女性为中心的护理助产士负责人。本文介绍了为促进正常分娩并使女性和助产士重新关注分娩的正常方面而采取的一些措施。这些措施包括:为工作人员设立正常分娩焦点小组、为工作人员开展学习日活动并制定正常分娩技能包、努力使分娩环境非医疗化、分娩审计中的一对一护理、为女性及其分娩伴侣举办主动分娩工作坊以及产科病房的虚拟参观。作者希望这能为其他产科病房的助产士和工作人员提供思路和方法,使他们能够专注于为其所护理的所有女性实现分娩正常化。
