“Working together as a system to ensure that our maternity and neonatal services become even safer, more equitable, kinder, personalised and family friendly”
BOB LMNS is here to support maternity and neonatal service teams and service users across the BOB locality. The BOB area covers Berkshire West and the counties of Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire.
We are a commissioning, transformation and quality oversight function. We also operate as the team which manages and leads across the maternity and neonatal ICS (integrated care system) as well as being a team under the CNO (Chief nursing officer) directorate of the BOB Integrated Care Board.
We aim to deliver the NHSE maternity and neonatal programme in the BOB locality as well as tailoring our priorities to address the specific needs of our population, working with a wide range of system partners to include service user and service user led organisations (such as the MNVP), trusts, VCSEs (Voluntary Community and Social Enterprises), local authority, clinicians, the neonatal ODN (operational development network), HEE (Health Education England), OHID (Office of Health Improvement and Disparities) and so on.
