The publication of the Amos and Ockenden reviews has reinforced the need for change across perinatal services.

This panel discussion will explore how digital capability can support the delivery of safer, more personalised and more connected care, with a particular focus on improving the experience of women and families, strengthening information sharing, enabling earlier identification of risk, and supporting continuous learning across services.

Bringing together clinical, operational and digital perspectives, the session will consider practical opportunities to translate the reviews’ digitally-focused recommendations into meaningful improvements for women, babies and staff, followed by an open Q&A.

The panel will consist of:

Tony Kelly, National Specialty Advisor, National Maternity and Neonatal Programme, NHSE

Karen Jewell, Chief Midwifery Officer, Welsh Government

Jules Gudgeon, Chief Midwifery Information Officer (CMidIO), NHSE

Jonathan Bloor, Medical Director, System C
