Dear both We have a PhD student who is just planning a review on initiatives to address improvements in respectful care. Some of this is likely to overlap as (thankfully) more integrated approaches are being taken to quality so will keep you posted if there is anything of interest from this.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognise the sender and believe the content to be safe. Dear All, Can you help us collate some information about initiatives designed to address either ‘Too much too soon’ (TMTS – over-intervention without likely clinical benefit) or ‘Too little too late’ (delays to accessing or receiving high quality maternity care)? Kirstie Coxon and I are currently undertaking some global mapping work around initiatives relating to improving women’s experience of maternity care, and we will be presenting our preliminary findings at the International Normal Birth Conference in Grange. We are looking at published literature too of course, but realise we may miss lots of unpublished or unreported initiatives that you may have knowledge of from your work. We would very much welcome your help in identifying any initiatives you know of which have been developed to address either ‘too much too soon’ or ‘too little too late’. For the purposes of this preliminary work, we have defined an initiative as: ‘Concrete steps taken by an actor or group of actors to achieve a desired specific outcome’ (i.e. reducing TMTS/enhancing TLTL care). So far, we have identified examples such as policy directives, campaigns and innovations in maternity care practices. We look forward to hearing about initiatives in all forms and from all areas of the globe. Please share this message with your peers, other email lists, via social media or and with colleagues in other countries. Please send details of any initiatives directly to me at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. You can be as brief as you like; it would be helpful to know the name of the initiative, the country, region or locality where it is operating, and the intended outcome, but if it is easier, just send us some text and/or web links and we will follow them up. Many thanks in anticipation of your help.
