Increasing Prematurity Awareness
We are seduced into making decisions based on threats, fear and convenience. We either allow our babies to be at risk for prematurity by having a “Too Posh to Push” mentality or we allow the “Induction Seduction” choose our baby’s birth date.
There is no right or wrong way to birth. Your choices are not epidural or nothing. Your choices are not just black or white; there’s a lot of grey in between. When you make a decision on how, with whom and where you are going to birth, do your research. Make sure that the decisions you make are in the best interest of you and your baby.
In an era where our healthcare system is failing, can we afford not to be educated?
So while President Obama is searching for ideas to reform healthcare, maybe he should start with a few simple and very cost effective changes. Firstly, education of patients on their choices and options. Secondly, evidence based practice. And, thirdly, collaborative healthcare
Healthcare “Re-Form” will begin with us…the citizens …the consumers…the patients.
