The Alliance of Nurse-Midwives. Maternity and Neonatal Nurses
of Newfoundland and Labrador
(A Special Interest Group of the ARNN)
Newsletter - February 1993 a u
There has been a gap of five months since the last Newsletter.
One of the reasons why there was not one at the beginning of the
year was because I had not received any material. If you want a
Newsletter please send me the information to be included. This can
be a brief report to share with your colleagues regarding a
conference which you have attended; a thumb-nail sketch of a person
who has contributed, or is in the process of contributing, towards
the care of mothers and babies; details of future conferences or
workshops; calls for abstracts; questions which you would like
someone to answer; letters to the editor and comments on what is
written etc. etc. Also I would like to remind members that if they
change either their home or work address to please advise us so
that you can continue to receive your copy of the Newsletter.
Will this be your last copy of the Newsletter?
It has been agreed (at the February meeting) that the Newsletter
will no longer be sent to individuals who are not members of the
Alliance. Also, a copy will no longer be sent to a key person at a
hospital with a maternity unit. It is too expensive to print and
send the Newsletters to non-members who are not contributing
towards its cost. Although other associations are increasing their
registration fees the Alliance still has the same $10.00 fee as was
agreed upon several years ago. One issue of the Newsletter costs
approximately $12.00 even though the Newsletters are delivered by
hand where possible.
How can the Newsletter be improved? By members contributing
materials.
The 1993 form for membership is at the end of the Newsletter.

Reports of the last Two Meetings
There were 13 people present at the meeting held on September
17, 1992. This first meeting of the winter was started with a
barbecue at Edna McKim's house. The second meeting was held on a
wintry evening, February 11, 1993, at Kay Matthews house. This
meeting ended with a film "Hidden Tragedy" about childbirth in
Nigeria. (Contact Kay about borrowing this film). Kay had visited
this area as one of a Safe Motherhood team. Both meetings discussed
the same topics.
Sponsoring a midwife from Nigeria to attend the ICM congress
in Vancouver. The airfare is approximately $2800.00, and the
registration fee is $575.00 but this has been waived if the
Alliance can provide the other money. Originally it was understood
that CIDA was going to match donated funds but now the financial
situation is such that the association making the nomination has to
provide the funding. At the beginning of February the Alliance was
