answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/11/2018 answer text <p>Medical staff are responsible for the clinical care of the patient throughout their treatment. There are a basic set of expectations for nursing and medical care post-surgery which apply to children. For example, they must be anaesthetised by anaesthetists competent in its administration; be looked after by teams dedicated to their care, who have received the necessary training; and be cared for in an appropriate environment. This is all part of good quality care.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 28/11/2018 17:28:52 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/11/2018 answer text <p>Hypertension or high blood pressure during pregnancy (known as pre-eclampsia) is the most common medical problem that is encountered in pregnancy.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/11/2018 answer text <p>Decisions on adoption in England are made by local authorities based on children’s individual needs.</p><p>In 2016 the government published ‘Adoption – A vision for change’ which set out how we intend to radically redesign the whole adoption system in England – the structures, systems and workforce – to ensure we have the foundations in place to build lasting change.</p><p>We have enabled more children to be placed in stable homes earlier by requiring local authorities to consider a fostering for adoption placement wherever possible. We funded a significant growth in the use of innovative adopter-led matching through National Exchange Days and Adoption Activity Days. We have also introduced a new, quicker two-stage process for approving adopters.</p><p>The result has been that the average time taken from entering care to a child being placed with their adopted family has decreased since 2012-13 by 7 months to 14 months in 2017-18. The children waiting in care with a placement order but not yet placed with adopters has dropped from 5,300 reported at 31 March 2013 to 2,760 at the end of 2017-18.[1]</p><p>We are driving further improvements in local adoption recruitment, matching and support through the introduction of Regional Adoption Agencies.</p><p> </p><p>[1] <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/children-looked-after-in-england-including-adoption-2017-to-2018" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/children-looked-after-in-england-including-adoption-2017-to-2018</a>.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 28/11/2018 15:40:20 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
