How conflicts in clinical opinion can impact maternity care.
When clinical opinions differ, it can be a strength—but only if those differences are properly explored, communicated, and resolved in a timely way.
In this Her Body, Her Life, Her Claim mini video, Expert Midwife and Obstetrics Emma Twine discusses how conflicts in clinical opinion can impact maternity care.

If not managed effectively, this can affect safety, confidence within the team, and ultimately clinical outcomes.
Watch now to explore why structured communication and clear leadership are essential when clinical opinions diverge in maternity care.
