Nurturing Maternity Staff (Paperback)

Paperback. That maternity staff are under pressure, with many leaving their jobs each year, is well known. Personal sacrifices, long working hours, lack of resources and an overstretched system take their toll, and occasionally staff are involved in traumatic and emotionally difficult situations. Many tolerate these conditions in the service of doing a job they love, but what happens to their mental health over time? Nurturing Maternity Staff explains how the system and individuals within it relate to each other, highlighting both the vital role compassionate leadership has in creating psychologically safe working environments, as well as tools individuals can use to optimise their own mental wellbeing.Lets dare to dream maternity services could be different. Midwife means 'with woman' not 'with paperwork', so why are we tolerating a broken system? Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
