I have worked with midwives from England who have a very medicalised view of
birth. Also with a New Zealander who would just wander in, stocking drawers
etc with a woman labouring in the room. I also met a Kiwi who had a C/S for
CPD in NZ then went on to have a natural birth with the next baby who

Extra $52m for maternity services
From: AAP
October 31, 2005
QUEENSLAND has announced an extra $52 million for maternity
services in the
state's public hospitals.
In terms of different health care systems, it is important to note that any
access women have to services can only be as great as women's standing in
that community. Gven that Australia only ranks about 28th in the world for
percentage of women in parliament, and our rape stats are some of the

Those of you who are ANF members and receive the
ANJ there is a great article (3 pages!) in this months issue by Fiona Armstrong
titled "The fight to care" and it's all about women having the right to choose

Just a very subjective observation based on 9 months in Qld... I think that
the women and mws here are more politicised. Perhaps it is that there is
more to fight for - not sure. But, I have met more highly motivated women
and mw in the last 9 months than I did in years in the UK. In the UK

Hi Alese,
Level 2 midwife (in a ward hospital setting) is the
senior midwife on that shift who is responsible for the co-ordination of the
shift as well as being a resource person for level 1 midwives. There is
usually at least one on per shift. They also have portfolio's such as
clinical
Thanks for the clarification Melissa, which state
