This brochure outlines the experiences of SHP in the delivery of women’s care facilities, from gestation to birth. The partners and staff of Strategic Healthcare Planning have been involved in the delivery of facilities for the care of women since 1978 with a commission at North Staffs City General Hospital. Since then the Organisation has been involved in a full range of service models from tertiary to general hospital to primary care whilst also contributing to the production of national guidance. This document outlines the contribution SHP has made to the care of patients through the development of appropriate facilities that provide for modern techniques and modalities.

In 2013 the Trust considered the impact on the service that reviewed demographic changes that could require the building to increase its births by up to a further 1000 babies. SHP developed the strategy in response to this increased demand. 9
University Hospital of North Staffordshire NHS Trust City General Hospital, North Staffordshire Maternity
In 1978 one of the Partners at SHP commenced a 40 year journey with the provision of facilities for maternity services on the City General site that culminated with a new, integrated ‘state of the art’ hospital procured through the NHS Procure 21 route. Those early years saw developments for delivery, neonatal, mother & baby unit, and several business cases. The development of a new PFI Hospital for the Trust provided the opportunity to create a new facility.

Stoke City General Hospital North Staffordshire Maternity Services Strategic Healthcare Planning (SHP) has undertaken health planning work for the University Hospital of North Staffordshire (NHS) Trust for many years and this has been of a consistently high standard and has shown a high degree of innovation. A major strength of SHP is the way in which they have engaged all stakeholders but particularly clinical teams within the Trust. This has been evidenced by the successful outcome of the projects with which they have been involved. One of the most significant projects was a new Maternity and Oncology development on the main acute hospital site. The juxtaposition of these two services was dictated by the programming for the whole site development but taking the two services forward at the same time required a great deal of innovative thinking.

“
The project was completed on time and to budget and with a high level of user satisfaction for both maternity and oncology services. This was in no small part due to the input of SHP and to the high level of knowledge; experience; professionalism; innovation; and stakeholder involvement that they brought to bear on the project.

Liverpool Women’s Hospital Liverpool Specialist Hospital
Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust specialises in the health of women and their babies - both within the hospital and out in the community. And, is one of only two such specialist trusts in the UK - and the largest women’s hospital of its kind in Europe. The maternity team cares for women and their babies from conception to birth supported by a neonatal team which provides around the clock care for premature and new born babies needing specialist care. SHP were commissioned to undertake a series of business cases with regards to service development focussing specifically on critical care and delivery suite. These commissions sprang from an initial requirement to undertake an estates strategy which reviewed both service and estate in order to respond to increased demands from the community.
