Dear Maureen, I work in the birth centre at the Angliss and find it a great place to work. The 9 midwives that currently work there are a great bunch and we are a close knit group.We are very much women centered and worked hard initially in the setting up of the birth centre and used evidence effectively which see us doing vbacs, our exclusion policy is minimal, gestational diabetes does not result in transfer out. We do a fair number of waterbirths and physiological third stages. We currently book 30 women a month, more often than not a 50;50 split of primips and multis. We order our own tests and ultrasounds if women request them. We are working on getting our own prescribing rights. We run our own clinics ,have our own bedcard.,run our own classes and enjoy good relations with the 4 GP's who back us.Our stats are excellent and the powers that be would like to see us expand the program if we can show need. Hope this is helpful. Good luck with the interview.
