Collaborative care at Women’s Health of Central Virginia, also known as the “team approach,” allows each type of healthcare provider to work in conjunction with each other to create a personalized care plan based on each patient’s unique situation. Research has proven that the experiences of pregnant women and their families are often improved with a collaborative care approach where nurse practitioners, midwives and doctors all work together. Patients benefit from the wealth of knowledge and experience each team member brings to their care, and our providers benefit from learning from each other in an environment that encourages growth and professional development. 

We believe that the patient is the most important member of her healthcare team. We want to know each woman’s preferences and personal goals for health, wellness, labor and delivery. Collaborative care offers benefits that last for a lifetime, ensuring coordinated communication among providers, reducing unnecessary testing and improving a patient’s overall healthcare experience. 

The team approach allows our healthcare professionals to provide women with the best healthcare possible. It also has been shown to improve patient satisfaction, improve communication among providers and increase access to care. This results in a higher likelihood of vaginal birth, a reduced chance of a cesarean delivery and lower preterm birth rates.
