β¦ Synopsis
OneβtoβOne Midwifery, a model of care developed in the United Kingdom, provides a continuous and personal relationship between each woman and her midwife. The organization of care and the outcomes are relevant to midwifery policy in all industrialized countries. OneβtoβOne Midwifery is not solo practice. An important principle of the organization of the practice is to enable individual midwives to take time off and to provide supportive structures for the midwives. Here the implications of OneβtoβOne Midwifery for childbearing women and their families, and the midwives involved, are explored. The OneβtoβOne Midwifery model has particular relevance for Canada because it is very similar to the model of practice being developed in at least two provinces. It may also be of importance in the United States, particularly for midwives working shifts in hospitals who may want to develop a system that allows them to provide continuity to the women they serve.
