Equity and equality
The Humber and North Yorkshire Local Maternity and Neonatal System (LMNS) have now published an Action Plan covering the next five years up until 26/27 and detailing how we plan to address our identified areas of inequity.
All women, birthing people and babies who use our maternity and neonatal services should receive the best care possible, which is why we are committed to reducing health inequalities and addressing inequity – our Equity and Equality Action Plan sets out how we will do this.
