Summary
Mind the Gap 2021 explores what training looked like for the maternity services workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how this relates to the factors that contribute to the avoidable harm and deaths of mothers, birthing people, and their babies. It is an ongoing piece of research by the charity Baby Lifeline. The report directly surveys recommendations from reports investigating avoidable harm and takes into account wider events affecting maternity care. Training is a central recommendation for improving safety in maternity services. Gaps which already existed in training due to chronic underfunding and staff shortages have become worse, and this report will give recommendations to improve training nationally and locally at a critical time for maternity.
