May I please bring your attention to this very important issue.
The Royal College of Midwives has estimated that the maternity services are 3500 midwives short and this number is rapidly growing. The pressure midwives are under is immense and this is resulting in exhaustion, burnout, and many leaving the profession altogether. Those of us that remain often find ourselves doing the work of 2 people. As hard as we try to keep up our standard of care, this impacts on our patients. We need to keep the momentum moving on this petition. Please sign and share.
