EBB 65 - Navigating the Hospital Birth System with Midwife Afua Hassan
Evidence Based Birth® - A podcast by Rebecca Dekker, PhD, RN - Wednesdays
Categories:
In this episode, I interview midwife and Evidence Based Birth Professional member Afua Hassan. Afua has practiced as a midwife since 1984. In 2011, she expanded her home birth practice and founded The Birthing Place, Houston’s first freestanding birth center owned and operated by a black midwife. The name “The Birthing Place” was chosen by Afua in response to her observation that many women felt that they needed a hospital and a doctor to deliver babies.
