Ruth-Anna It’d be really great if they could streamline oversight and performance management requirements - at the moment it feels like death by a 1000 audits - all needing senior leadership oversight. Those leaders need to be focused on operations not the 20th version of the same KPIs.

Long but powerful second day at #RCOG2025. Maternity safety, neurodivergence, and an incredibly powerful plenary from Deborah Harrington on the humanitarian and healthcare crisis in Gaza.
