Re: [ozmidwifery] rural maternity services

Tragic isn't it that so many of us know this scenario in many regions over the country?? Would make a great documentary to travel around our country talking to the women in the regions of their experiences with birthing services, including those who have solved their problems with good consumer driven services. Anyone got filmmaking skills?? Cheers Di ----- Original Message ----- From: D.

But I think the story is the same everywhere. It is the consumers we need to get moving because no one is listening to the healthcare workers. I am still stunned at how quickly things have moved since our girls(consumers) got their teeth into the problem. They have read everything I have given them on models of care, the review of Maternity services in Qld, etc. and have a solution to just about every problem that has been put to them, I am very proud of them.
