Maternity Care: Time Govt end postcode lottery
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Commenting on the the Birth Trauma Inquiry, Liberal Democrat MP and Co-Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Baby Loss, Helen Morgan MP said:
“This inquiry has exposed what many of us have long feared about the state of the country’s maternity services.
“For so many women to have such traumatic experiences of birth is nothing short of a national tragedy. Too many are being failed in pregnancy, birth and aftercare as this report shows.
“It’s time the Government took action to end the postcode lottery in maternity services. I urge them to accept the report in full.”
