Mobile Midwives: Transforming Birth Options takes readers on a journey through Marge Foley’s far-reaching career as a midwife in Australia. Marge was a senior midwife and hospital maternity unit manager before becoming a director of Mobile Midwives NT in the country’s tropical Top End.
During her midwifery career, she supported midwives to create changes in maternity care that would help improve outcomes for mothers and babies. When providing care to women, her goal was to make that birth as easy and joyous as possible.
By sharing both her hospital and home-birth midwifery experience, Marge wishes to inspire midwives to consider a continuity of care service model. The professional insights she has included throughout the book may also provide valuable information to students and practicing midwives.
She hopes the book’s stories will inspire pregnant women to actively seek information about birth so that they understand the process. Being fully informed about what to expect will help to make the birth experience more meaningful and increase the likelihood of a joyful birth.
