Abstract
Centering-based group antenatal and postnatal care (gAPNC) can improve quality of care. Implementation benefi ts from enthusiasts and careful planning. A steering committee to oversee planning, implementation and evaluation keeps the fi re alive and can provide support for the whole implementation team. gAPNC can be adapted to the local needs to fit as best as possible with the implementing organisation and its population. Sustainability requires ongoing training and support for practitioners. This article provides insights, tips and tricks for those that are wishing to implement gAPNC.
