Te Pae Hauora o Ruahine o Tararua | MidCentral is pleased to provide our 2023 annual maternity report. 

This report describes practices, projects and achievements that reflect MidCentral’s commitment to equitable and quality care for the wāhine and whānau we serve. It also covers recommendations of the National Maternity Monitoring Group and the Perinatal and Maternal Mortality Review Committee. 

We are proud of our people who work in the maternity services, both in the hospital, community and as lead maternity carers (LMC). Their efforts in supporting wāhine, pēpi and their whānau are commendable. Our teams work under challenging conditions – ageing facilities, workforce shortages and the increasing clinical complexity that arises from obesity and the many socioeconomic determinants that impact on our community.
