hope these help? 'scuse the rubbish half hearted attempt at harvard referencing, not very good is it?!
You could also try looking at the DoH National Service Framwork?
A lot of the refs cover woman-centred care as well, which could be a starting point for providing continuity of care?
hope it goes ok
