Decisions about appropriate models of care are guided by the Peninsula Health Risk Assessment for Model of Care document and made in consultation with patients. Models of care may change according to need during pregnancy and/or labour.
Women with no risk factors (Group A) are considered low risk and suitable for GP Shared Maternity Care. Women with medium risk (Group B) are suitable for GP Shared Care after Obstetric review and higher risk (Group C) women should be for Obstetric care only.
