This is such a great quote and only 5 weeks in this is how our team of midwives feel about the way we are working ❤ we hope we can be successful like you @chikernow 🤗

[Chi Kernow Midwives @chikernow]

CoC means many things, but it starts with a group of people willing to work together in a new way & willing to put pregnant families at the centre of the care they provide. But mostly it’s a group of friends who enjoy what they do. #jobsatisfaction @jane_urben @trudmister

[Team Athena @TeamAthena1]

@chikernow @jane_urben @trudmister What a great quote! This is just how our CoC team works!!!!! We are new to it all.... 5 weeks in but loving how we all pull together to put women at the centre of our care ❤
