With increasing diversity in the UK’s childbearing population and ongoing racial disparities in maternal health outcomes, this new title will help both students and practicing midwives provide care that meets the needs of childbearing women and birthing people from different cultural backgrounds. The book lays the foundations for exploration of the many manifestations of transcultural care and covers everything that midwives need to know in order to be sensitive to and aware of cultural differences, needs and preferences during pregnancy and childbirth.
