03: Choosing a care provider — evidence on women's experiences of different care providers, an interview with Dr Hazel Keedle
from Birth Choices · host Alice Godfree and Elysia Hansen
In part 2 of our mini-series on care provider choices we speak with Dr Hazel Keedle, lead researcher on Australia's largest survey on women's experiences of maternity care, the Birth Experience Study (BESt). We discuss the findings explored in a few key papers emanating from the responses of 8,804 women to that survey, including key findings around “what women want if they were to have another baby”, as well as the strengths and and limitations of different maternity models of care accessed by women in Australia in the preceding 5 years.Links:Keedle, H., Lockwood, R., Keedle, W., Susic, D., & Dahlen, H.
