Strategic perinatal workforce plan

We are leading on the development of the strategic perinatal workforce plan to recruit, retain, train and transform the current and future perinatal workforce in NHS Wales.

The Maternity and Neonatal Consultation Wales

To support the strategic perinatal plan we have developed a set of draft actions which are aligned with the themes of the Health and Social Care Workforce Strategy. This has been achieved by following the HEIW three pillar approach of: reviewing the literature, research and good practice, data and analytics, and by undertaking extensive stakeholder engagement. We are now ready to consult widely on the draft actions and need to hear your opinion to ensure that the actions supporting the plan are the correct actions.

Our consultation on the actions of the Strategic Perinatal Workforce Plan will be live from the 02 September 2024 - 11 October 2024.

If you are part of the perinatal or wider workforce, we need to hear from you to confirm what is strong, missing or wrong with the current draft actions.

We strongly encourage you to have your say on the proposed actions by completing our MS Form. We are also hosting a series of webinars to assist in gaining your opinion. To have your say and to book a place on one of our webinars please follow the links below.
