Very
interesting Debby!
I
noted that the Mater is also a signatory to this policy. I'll be sure to point
this out to my midwife/birth support person before we go to the
hospital.
Thanks!

Ladies you might want to check to see if the hospitals concerned are signatories to the Women's Friendly Hospital Policy. Although I did point this policy out to RWH Brisbane who are signatories to it and the only person who really applied the criteria in it was the head of midwifery services who finally arranged for me the care which I wanted. The Women's Health Nurse Practitioner Policy also makes an interesting read.
