A planning checklist for interprofessional consultations for women in midwifery care.
This article describes a planning checklist tool designed by using feedback from women, nurses, midwives, and physicians, to improve communication within one health system and to develop a community-engaged approach for the care of women who began care with midwives but developed risks for poor perinatal outcomes. In feasibility testing, the checklist provided a prompt to generate a comprehensive plan for maternity care and to elucidate the rationale for interventions to women and future health care providers. In post-implementation interviews, women said they were pleased with the information they received, and nurses, midwives, and physicians were positive about improved communication. The article details the creation, implementation, and qualitative evaluation of the planning checklist.
