This module has been created by Kellie Whiskin a highly respected Doula, Movement Therapist, Educator and Counsellor who sees birth partner's, as one of the most integral parts of the birthing woman's journey. All modules are inclusive and recognise that birth partners have unique perspectives and experiences too.
What is a 'birth partner'?
A birth partner is someone who is invited by the birthing woman, into her birth space, to provide continuous, non-medical support, during labour and birth. This may include, but not limited to, her intimate partner, family member or trusted friend.
MODULE 6. INFORMED CONSENT
Informed consent stands as a cornerstone ethical and legal principle in the realm of healthcare, playing a pivotal role in the context of childbirth. You will learn the fundamental principles of informed consent including implied consent, a healthcare provider's duty of care during necessary procedures and so much more.
Benefits for Birthing Support Partners:
Clear Understanding of Healthcare Procedures: Develop a clear understanding of implied consent and the healthcare provider's duty of care, enabling you to navigate necessary procedures with confidence and knowledge.
Empowered Decision Support: Acquire the skills to actively support the birthing woman in the decision-making process by understanding the principles of informed consent. This empowerment allows you to be a knowledgeable and reassuring presence during healthcare discussions.
Enhanced Communication with Healthcare Providers: Develop the ability to communicate effectively with healthcare providers regarding informed consent. This skill ensures that you can ask pertinent questions, seek clarification, and actively engage in discussions, nurturing a collaborative and transparent healthcare environment.
