Antenatal Shared Care (ANSC) allows women with a low risk pregnancy the option to receive a majority of their pregnancy care with their GP.
ANSC benefits
Enhance your professional skillset
SWSPHN regularly facilitates Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for antenatal care. This supports the requirement to complete at least 12 points of antenatal or postnatal specific CPD per triennium.
Continuity of care
Feel comfortable providing ongoing care throughout your patients pregnancy and afterwards as their regular GP.
