Good practice points

The Consultative Council on Obstetric and Paediatric Mortality and Morbidity (CCOPMM) good practice points reflect the findings of review of all cases of maternal, perinatal and paediatric mortality and severe acute maternal morbidity.

Good practice points are designed to direct health services and clinicians towards the improvements required in their services and/or in their own clinical practice. All health services and clinicians should develop a plan to consider good practice points in the context of their settings and implement those that will improve the care they provide.
