While I don't have any solutions to offer you, I would like to hear what other may
have to offer.
The birthing of aboriginal women is high on our agenda in this unit, and has been for
some time. We have had a couple of "projects" in which we had a great deal of hope,
but have still failed - although we are establishing excellent working relationships
which is good for the future.
In our unit, approx. one women in four leaves the hospital without her baby - i.e. for
aboriginal women in this area, there is a high prevalence of stillbirth, neonatal
death, or admission to Special Care or Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery.
If anyone has a model that seems to be working, tell your story please.
