Birthing on country is better for First Nations mothers and their babies, so why isn't it more widespread?

That's right, she now works at the centre.

So in twenty thirteen, two Aboriginal Controlled Community Health Services teamed up with a hospital in Brisbane and started the Birthing in Our Community programme, which they call the BIOC program.
voice-verified
And as you say, the idea was to provide a holistic, culturally sensitive approach to childbirth.
voice-verified
And uh Christy Wadtago, she's a bungeelung woman from Logan in Southeast Queensland.
voice-verified
She gave birth through the BIOC program and loved her experience so much that she now works at the service.
voice-verified
And her birthing experience through the program was just a far cry from her experience with her second son, who was born through a private obstetrician.
voice-verified
She'd been deemed high risk because of factors including her weight, but the model of care left her feeling disempowered and like she'd somehow.
voice-verified
So what
voice-verified

voice-verified

Mm.
voice-verified

voice-verified
Can you talk a bit about what work it is that you do now?
