Lovely to be virtual with some NHS teams focusing on a 3 day intro to relational and developmental trauma. We will also as part of the series be spending a day thinking about health and medical trauma. And 2 days on grief and loss next month.
@LauraPfist25501 @sheilabrill I know a lovely connection ❤️🤗❤️ and is a great and powerful book
I've just watched this video. Gives me hope for the future. Mature students who will bring life experience to the profession. They have a decent chance of withstanding the pressures & being able to speak up when it's needed. #midwives #beingstrong rcm.org.uk/promoting/educ…

My nightmare giving birth — and Britain’s maternity scandal. Thank you to @thetimes for publishing my piece on birth trauma. It’s a silent scandal affecting hundreds of thousands of mothers each year. Women, their babies, and partners deserve better thetimes.co.uk/article/f6ff7f…
... I thought I’d understood what the registrar was saying... Neither of us had questioned him, assuming he knew what he was doing. .. Was I supposed to be responsible for understanding the progress of my labour? To know when intervention was needed? #CTG resilient-books.co.uk
Big latest numbers - each real impacted families part of the biggest review into maternity failings in NHS history. The central focus Nottingham cases from. 2012 to now. @DOckendenLtd the final report due 09/2025 revealing how much harm was avoidable.
This is great - but should be a standard offer for all families affected by avoidable harm in maternity services - no matter which trust the harm occured in. We should be strieving for equity & a gold standard of support for all. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
@MidwifeCaulifl1 @Maternity_NCA Almost finished audible & hearing 💔 & daily challenges in providing care =constant reminders of failures in her care 😢only reiterates how advocacy roles in Mat/Neo services will ensure their voices are heard & improve safety @sheilabrill
Started this book. Recommended reading for anyone working in maternity care. #safecompassionatematernitycare @Maternity_NCA
Got a little flustered today when suggesting this book to @dr_treisman , for her to so say she had read it and it was an amazing book, as that meant she had read about me! @sheilabrill Josephine’s legacy is getting heard 🥰
I’m delighted to share a podcast I recorded with Tim Douglas at Red Script Studios, Ontario. We talked about a difficult but important subject. tinyurl.com/pufvmaz6 #birthtrauma #trauma #ptsdchat #birthstories #maternityincrisis @WomenWriters @babylifeline @LeighDayHealth

Whilst I’m pleased awareness is being raised & (some) courageous staff & parents are speaking out, it’s so devastating that lessons have not in fact been learnt. I hope your book is read by those denying there is a problem.

Way too weak Prime Minister, you need to be on top of this. Maternity care needs to be examined thoroughly. Why have we not learnt prom previous inquiries? Why haven’t all agreed recommendations from previous inquiries been enacted? This is YOUR job to deal with, not ours!
NEW: I asked the Prime Minister today if he would commit to a public inquiry into maternity services. It’s what many bereaved & harmed families have called for - in Nottingham and beyond Here’s what he told me: nottstv.com/rishi-sunak-de…
