Kent midwife takes up national role on RCM Board

on 11 September 2019 RCM Board Elections

A Kent midwife has joined the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) board following board elections.

Dee Davies, who is a Maternity Clinical Advisor at NHS Resolution in London, took up her role on the new RCM Board last week.

Dee Davies has held a number of senior positions in her midwifery career including clinical, managerial and strategic leadership roles. Dee brings expert knowledge of current national issues affecting midwifery and maternity to her new role as a RCM board member. Dee has been a practising midwife for 25 years.

The RCM Board is very important to the running of the RCM and is responsible for the overall direction and control of the organisation. All members of the RCM Board are practising midwives and maternity support workers who have been elected to the Board by members of the RCM.

Commenting on taking up her RCM Board role, Dee said, “I am delighted and privilege that I have been appointed to join the RCM board and I will undertake this role with full commitment, integrity and honesty and I will endeavour to ensure that the members voice is represented at board level.
