Maternity is a key focus for the NHS Resolution strategy, supporting the National Maternity safety ambition to improve outcomes and reduce harm.

The Maternity Incentive Scheme and Early Notification Scheme support NHS Resolution’s commitment and ambition to support safer maternity care.

NHS Resolution has worked with NHS England elearning for healthcare to explore the key principles of the claims and litigation processes, applied to the context of maternity care.  The programme was developed to deliver the objectives of the Early Notification clinical team at NHS Resolution.

The content for the elearning sessions and case stories was developed for clinicians by the Early Notification team at NHS Resolution and written as a maternity module by the clinical team based at Staffordshire University.

Session 1 – Introduction to NHS Resolution and the law of negligence
Session 2 – Learning from the Early Notification Scheme
