KERNOW Maternity & Neonatal voices

Working in partnership to improve services for all

Kernow Maternity Voices Partnership funded this initiative, ‘We support the Local Maternity and Neonatal System (LMNS) to ensure services are delivered in a kind, personal and safe way by making sure the service user voice is central to all decision making and quality oversight.

This enables the ICB to fulfil its responsibilities in line with the three year delivery plan for maternity and neonatal services in England.’
