✨ Advocacy Update: Good News for Midwifery Care ✨

We’re thrilled to share encouraging news for Edmonton-area midwives and families.

Following ongoing advocacy by the Alberta Association of Midwives (AAM), in-hospital midwifery services at the Royal Alexandra Hospital will continue in the near term while longer-term planning is underway.

Honouring Your Body, Your Birth, Your Choices

Midwives are experts in healthy pregnancy and birth.

Midwives provide government-funded primary care to pregnant people and their newborns. Under the midwifery scope of practice, your midwife provides care to support the health and safety of you and your baby from early pregnancy, through labour and birth, until six weeks postpartum.

As soon as you know you are pregnant, you can contact a midwifery practice through our wait pool as the first point of entry into maternity health care. A referral from a physician is not required.
