This course aims to help maternity services build the organisational, cultural and clinical foundations needed to successfully implement Martha’s Rule in maternity care.
Through expert presentations, discussion, case-based group work and learning from the experience of early adopter organisations, delegates will explore why Martha’s Rule matters in maternity care and the practical steps organisations can take now to prepare for implementation as national guidance continues to evolve.
The course will place particular emphasis on listening to women and families, recognising and responding to deterioration, effective escalation, multidisciplinary working, leadership, psychological safety and organisational readiness.
Delegates will work in groups to consider a series of maternity scenarios in which Martha’s Rule is used.
The sessions will provide an opportunity to explore how escalation might work in practice, consider the perspectives of women, families and healthcare professionals, and identify potential organisational, cultural and clinical challenges. Group feedback will be followed by facilitated multidisciplinary discussion.
