Hoi
friends,
Last week I send
the question about hep C and homebirth. Since then I got a lot of information
and I could decide that homebirth was not a problem with some precautions to
protect ourselves. But I have a problem with my colleagues. We have a practice
of three midwives and the other two refuse to help the mother, saying that they
think the risc is to much to take. She was also a drugaddict, but clean now for
several years. She had recent a partner with unsafe sexual behaviour (several
partners).
My colleagues
say that she is responsible herself for what she got and take the consequences
of it. I believe that everybody needs a second chance.
They say,
considering our teamwork that I have to refuse her too. They are angry at
me.
I feel that
refusing her is some discimination.
How should you
handle this in your practice?
warm
greetings
Lieve
Lieve Huybrechts
