Black History IS Midwifery History @MidwiferyForum #safespace #representation #NorthernMMF2024 #unconciousbias
Making memories isn’t just relevent for bereaved parents but can be so valuable parents who aren’t taking their baby home ie: to foster care, to another hospital for surgery, etc
@MidwiferyForum @BeyondBea1 #NorthernMMF2024 #personalisedcare #personcentred #midwife
Practise saying someone’s name and don’t stop until you get it right - a name means something, it’s important. Get it right. @SupportMECIC #northernmmf2024 @MidwiferyForum #culturallysafematernitycare
Professionals confidence speaking to women & birthing people from different cultures @NorthernMMF2024 @SupportMECIC

The removal of MH support for Medical staff when suicide rates are still soaring is not just careless, it’s dangerous. Please sign and share.

Arguably the highlight of the @BICSoc conference dinner was watching people have the courage to have a go on the slide! 🤣🤣🤣 @carolyn20071 @GibbleJo @AIMS_online #BICS23 #nevergrowup
“..no one cares more about the outcome of a pregnancy than the mother…” Powerful women with important stories to tell, so glad to see a room full of enthralled listeners @birthrightsorg @Bryany2103 @BICSoc
“…even beach donkeys get rest breaks on shift…” !! Shift work is a known carcinogen 😢😢 #fightfatigue @TheBMA @MidwivesRCM @BICSoc
So much positivity from this fabulous team from @ChelwestFT and wonderful from a personal perspective to see LBGTQ representation when discussing #culturalsafety @BICSoc #BICS23 #maternitycareforall
Thought provoking insight into the quality of interpretation services and equitable access to vital information. Looking forward to utilising this app! @BICSoc #BICS23 #culturalsafety #EquityFocus @AIMS_online

Military personnel are 11% female, mostly young/middle-years. They & their family members will need maternity care. Often are posted abroad or elsewhere in UK during pregnancy. When & where do we hear their voices? @NCTcharity @BICSoc
Fantastic presentation about pre hospital maternity care and the need for true collaboration between Ambulance services and maternity services @PhD_Midwife @Camellamain1 @BICSoc

Just published short article in BMJ about fatigue in healthcare
As pressures are greater than ever, it’s imperative that NHS staff are supported in looking after their physical & mental health & well being so they can provide the best care for patients

Staff regularly fed back to us of being overworked, exhausted & stressed – sometimes to the point of becoming ill, injured or leaving their job altogether.
They say this can affect their ability to provide safe and effective care to people.
