Ye...Hi, and thank you for your very kind comments! Yes, I really do, and I think all students should try MGP to see the difference. I found being able to take the time to get to know the women & really understand their needs and their personalities helped me feel I could support them better. I could really see, feel, and believe in that midwife-woman partnership that is not always there in fragmented care no matter how much I strive to be woman-centred. <br />Kerryannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12814024180547471252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850993991742337865.post-48055443079912023812019-10-06T09:19:28.748+11:002019-10-06T09:19:28.748+11:00Thank you, glorious poem, Kerryanne, 🙏 The making...Thank you, glorious poem, Kerryanne, 🙏 The making of a family, be proud of what you will bring to women & their family as a midwife, warmly, Catherine Catherinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850993991742337865.post-43434048545046634872019-10-05T23:43:36.603+10:002019-10-05T23:43:36.603+10:00Kerryanne, this is beautiful!

Your relationship with women is clearly at the heart of your practice.<br /><br />How lucky you are also to have had the chance to complete a six month placement within a midwifery group practice. Do you think this changed your perspective at all? Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15321703262328594300noreply@blogger.com
