12.4 The lithotomy challenge: delivering kinder care

In this hour, Florence Wilcock, obstetrician and mum, and midwives Deepa Santosh and Helen Green explore how we can improve the experience of women, their babies and families as they pass through the maternity services. How does our perspective impact on our view, and the way we provide care, and how can we truly make the service kinder, more individualised and safer for all involved?
