a big part of it is the multi skilling crap which is just a way of
getting constant work out an individual which i think is why so many
places are against direct mid entry midwives, they cant be used like
slaves to work everywhere anywhere anytime. it is an evolving problem
and much to do with globalisation and utilising the human resources to
the best benefit of corporation which hospitals are fast becoming. The
macdonaldisation of society!!! It really worries me....

Not just a question for Barb, but anyone who knows about it, I’m
curious to know about the Midwife/nurse practitioner that you refer to
in Qld. What exactly do they do? How is this different to working
within the scope of a registered midwife? I’m aware that the college
is not supportive of the notion of midwives becoming NP’s, but I’m
actually interested in what role they play in maternity care over and
above the general run of the mill midwife?
Cheers,
