‘Making Lives Better for Mothers and Babies’ Clinical Research: ‘Making Lives Better for Mothers and Babies’ Research is the way we collect information needed to improve the care we give you and your baby. Improving healthcare is a key element of our Trust. Your help can improve the future health of your children, their children and that of others. About Us Here at County Durham and Darlington Foundation Trust we are supporting the ‘It’s OK to Ask’ initiative. International evidence shows that involving patients in their care and treatment improves their health outcomes. The National Health Service pledges to inform all patients of any research studies in which you may be eligible to participate. These research trials help to improve the care we provide to mothers and babies. If you are interested in being involved in any of our current studies, please ask your Community Midwife, or go to our Trust website for further information. “We know that 95% of patients & the public feel that it’s important that Clinical Research takes place in the NHS”. It is also known that NHS Trusts who are involved with clinical research, have better outcomes for their patients. Would you like to help with Research in pregnancy care ?
