The Maternity & Midwifery Hour

13.2 Work-Life Balance as a Midwife


Listen Later

Achieving a work-life balance as a midwife is a personal and a service challenge.



How to approach your own work life choices in your career, addressing stress, accessing support and insight into personal strategies from experts.




The demands of a service with staff shortages, a changing demographic of mothers with more complex conditions, the pressures and fear of errors.




Looking after yourself so you can look after others. Don't ignore the pressure, tackle the issue, learn from the best.
