Atlantic Maternal - Newborn Cursing Association
Atlantic Nurse-Midwifery Association
NEWSLETTER
Volume 2 Number \ January 1979
year Members:
While there has been quite a time span since you received the last
newsletter, much of interest to maternity nurses has occurred during the last
year. The major problem in keeping you informed as events occur is due, in
part, to my inability to spena too much time in developing the newsletter. I
need your help. The committee is looking for volunteers to serve on a newsletter committee. It is not necessary that you live in St. John's. Contributions to the newsletter should come from eyery part of the Atlantic Provinces.
Items can include local, regional, national and international matters. Such
input greatly improves the quality of newsletter content. The responsibility
of a newsletter committee would be specifically directed towards soliciting
such contributions while deciding on which items to include in 2 newsletters
per year. Printing can be done in any center that has a duplicating machine
(the cheapest form). Costs are covered by the general funu now managed by our
new Secretary/Treasurer, Cyntnia Andrews.
Workshops
1. "Trends in Maternity Care"
The travelling workshop conducted last Hay by Peggy Anne Field,
director of the Advanced Obstetrics Program, University of Alberta, was a
resounding success. We were delighted at the interest shown. Approximately
t>0 persons attended each of the two uay sessions hela at Grand Falls and Corner
brook while approximately 160 nurses and nursing students registered in St.
John's.
2. Human Relationships in the Child-Bearing Cycle
This workshop is planned for January 2* ana 30, 1979. Brochures
are being distributed now. The keynote speaker is Valmai Howe El kins, author
of the book, "The Rights of Pregnant Parent"
Home Births
This Association was asked by the Association of Registered Nurses
of Newfoundland to make a statement on the subjects of home births. The
following statement was submitted to them and we would like your comments on
it as well as on the subject itself. Home births are on the increase across
the continent and there is much concern being expressed about it from health
professionals, lay persons and consumers. What do you think?
