The Royal Women's Hospital (the Women's) on behalf of the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services has been engaged to provide support to regional hospitals for the establishment of regional maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity committees.
These regional committees have been developed to assist in building the capability of health services to learn from maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity review. The committees will also promote consistency in the application of the PSANZ guidelines more broadly through engagement with clinicians and existing review committees.
