Organisational Survey

The NMPA organisational surveys provide an overview of care provision by NHS maternity services in all settings across England, Scotland and Wales. The two surveys are snapshots of the organisation of care in January 2017 and January 2019, and reflect the changes which are being implemented as a result of the maternity and neonatal services reviews and other initiatives. The survey findings can also help to interpret the NMPA clinical audit data and to identify organisational factors which may contribute to variation.
