TeamBirth implementation is not a single event, but a journey.
We describe this journey using a high level implementation pathway which describes the phases any site will go through to bring about effective and sustainable TeamBirth practice change.
The TeamBirth Implementation Pathway provides an evidence-based foundation for an implementation roadmap with activities that guide effective and sustainable TeamBirth practice and culture change.
TeamBirth implementation guidance and resources describe what is core for each activity and the range of options and examples for adapting the solution to your site’s context.
