The fourth episode in our new Leading Improvement in Health and Care podcast series is now live. Each month, we’ll explore the learning and experiences of people making change across systems.In the UK, black mothers are up to four times more likely to die during pregnancy or in the postnatal period (six weeks after childbirth) than white women. The systemic biases and structural racism behind the figures are an area where improvement has the potential to make real impact. Black Maternity Matters is a ground breaking collaboration tackling the inequitable maternity outcomes faced by Black mothers and their babies. They’re working to support maternity systems to offer safer, equitable care for all. We talk to three of their improvement leaders: • Sonah Paton, Founding Director of Black Mothers Matter, collaborative partner on Black Maternity Matters. • Noshin Menzies, Senior Project Manager, Health Innovation West of England• Ann Remmers, Maternity and Neonatal Clinical Lead, Health Innovation West of England.Hosted by Penny Pereira, Q's Managing Director and Matthew Taylor, CEO at NHS Confederation, each episode aims to spotlight where improvement is working well, as well as the challenges it faces. This podcast is part of Learning and Improving Across Systems, a partnership between The Health Foundation, NHS Confederation and the #QCommunity to support health and care systems to learn and improve.

In health and care, we’re faced with a complex context in which to try to create change. It requires working collaboratively with others, and finding new ways of looking at, and responding to, problems we sometimes feel are familiar and well-trodden. At Q, we have tried and tested methods for creative collaboration and problem-solving. Our Creative Approaches to Problem Solving (CAPS) toolkit collates 25 activities we have found useful and brings them together with some tips and ideas. For example, the ‘Public Participation Spectrum’ method helps think through different ways to support public participation in the delivery of a product or service, and can increase the likelihood of wider impact. Each method has step-by-step instructions, whether you are looking to gain new insights and fresh perspectives, open up new ways at looking at a problem, harness new ideas to brainstorm or make a decision to move a project forward. Take a look at the full toolkit on our website:https://lnkd.in/eKc4dH83
