  • Title: A computer model to assess continuity of care.
    Author: Shirazi R, Mejia A.
    Journal: Mod Midwife; 1996 Apr; 6(4):10-1. PubMed ID: 8788899.
    Abstract:
    The implementation of continuity of care recommended in Changing Childbirth has not been easy and in practice varies from hospital to hospital. A computer model being developed at St Thomas' Hospital, allows users to consider the implications of different scenarios, for example: -different midwives' rotas -different caseloads per midwife -size of the team if team midwifery is being implemented. This model can be used to identify the benefits and disadvantages of different policies for both the midwives and the women in their care.
