059 Birth Bit: Advocacy

If there's anything we want you to gain from this podcast, it's that you (pregnant person/future patient/nurse/anyone!) have the right to advocate for yourself. In this episode, Liz speaks from her knowledge and experience that advocacy is a skill to develop and takes courage! A major role of the Labor and Delivery nurse is to advocate for her patient to have the birth story that they're envisioning as it aligns with keeping the patient and her baby healthy and safe.
