NHS West Kent CCG Community Midwifery Service Market Event

The Commissioner (NHS West Kent Clinical Commissioning Group) is aiming to establish a community midwifery service in the West Kent area as a pilot for implementation on a wider scale. The pilot is expected to involve treating approximately 200 patients, possibly over a two year period. This forms part of the work that is being undertaken by the Maternity Choice and Personalisation Pioneer which is a joint venture between NHS West Kent CCG, NHS High Weald Lewes Havens CCG and Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust (the Trust).
