“Confronting” is the word Heather uses to describe being a midwife during the pandemic. Dressed in full PPE, goggles and N95 mask to deliver a woman’s baby. Fatigue, loneliness, and ever-changing rules have challenged Heather at every turn. But through this journey there has been joy, incredible teamwork, and a deep commitment to give women the best birth experience she can. Heather can’t imagine doing anything else. 

This is a rare tale from a frontline worker of a busy hospital during the pandemic.
