5 May - International Midwives Day

ICM Theme: Women and newborns: the heart of midwifery

Your midwives are supportive and caring……….They did a fantastic job empowering me as a mother without giving a ‘one size fits all’ approach. 

– Elizabeth

CMS employs 22 Midwives to care for women and their newborn who are admitted to QEII.  In 2015, the midwives cared for 463 women and their newborns that were experiencing primary health care problems in the postnatal period.

On International Midwives Day, CMS congratulates QEII and all midwives on the tremendous work they do every day.
