Your Maternity Care and the role of SOM
Supervision of midwives is a statutory responsibility in the United Kingdom.
The role of Supervisors of Midwives is to ensure the development and maintenance of safe practice to ensure you, your baby and family are protected.
Supervision is a means of promoting excellence in midwifery care. Every midwife must have a named Supervisor of Midwives.
More information about supervision and how a Supervisor of Midwives can directly support you can be found in the Nursing and Midwifery Council information leaflet below:
