1 Aboriginal Midwifery As a Career Choice Midwives Association of BC - Aboriginal Committee October
2 What is our purpose? 1) Demonstrating solidarity and support with traditional midwives as we work towards a definition of Aboriginal Midwifery that is not inclusive to enrolment with our college prior to 1998 and increasing access to Aboriginal midwifery services for Aboriginal communities. 2) Connect with communities and encourage women to enter the maternity care field
3 What is a Midwife? a respected healthcare profession specialist in pregnancy, birth and postpartum $ $ / year
4 Traditional meanings for word midwife Cree the one who delivers Objibwe the one who cuts the cord Inuktitut the one who waits for the birth & the helper Coast Salish to watch, to care Chilcotin women s helper Nuu-chah-nulth one who can do everything
5 Midwives have been catching babies for thousands of years in most cultures In BC since January 1998 = official & paid by healthcare system (like nurses & doctors)
6 Difference between Registered Midwife & Doctors? Choices - home or hospital birth - options re tests/visits Personalized care long visits 45min-1hour each - smaller teams Newborn care - Home visits for first 1-2wks after birth
7 Stats on Midwives vs Doctors Registered Midwives Doctors C-section Rates 18.4% 31% Planning VBAC 93% 41.6% Successful VBAC 82% 80% Drugs in Labour 12.2% 31.3% Continuous Monitoring 51.4% 79.5%
8 The Job of an Aboriginal Midwife
9 Woman power There are currently 220 practicing midwives registered in B.C. Only 4 Aboriginal self-identifying midwives are registered or studying in B.C.
10 Midwifery Practices in BC
11 How did we get here? The negative impact of years of acculturation and assimilation have led to the decline of traditional midwifery practice in many parts of the country (a) broad societal shift of power and authority (b) traditional Aboriginal midwife role challenged and expertise ignored (c) traditional life now complicated by medical assessment and risk intervention
12 What does all this add up to? Women are being forced to leave their communities to birth in larger centers away from family, support systems, traditional birthing practices...
13 Research says: Strong cultural and physical ties to place of birth Culturally appropriate care Mental & physical health of women separated from families/communities Health impacts/care of families left behind Loss of belief in birth as normal part of lifecycle, including community based midwifery skills

17 Tripartite Aboriginal doula initiative to improve birth experiences and outcomes for Aboriginal women to re-introduce traditional Aboriginal support practices into the childbirth experience to improve maternity care systems and access within geographic areas to increase the number of Aboriginal women with formal doula training

20 Aboriginal Doula My name is...
21 Blending traditional and modern teachings We know that traditional pregnancy and childbirth took place within a closely knit nexus linking the midwife to the birthing women, to the infant, to the husband/ partner, to the family, to the extended family and ultimately to the entire community.
22 Aboriginal Midwifery Traditional Aboriginal midwifery practices including the use and administration of traditional herbs and medicines and other cultural and spiritual practices. Contemporary aboriginal midwifery practices which are based on, or originate in, traditional Aboriginal midwifery practices, or A combination of traditional and contemporary Aboriginal midwifery practices
