Welcome everyone to the Melanin Initiative!
“In healthcare, there is often too much information and not enough time. Here at The Melanin Initiative, we avoid TMI by breaking things down into language you can understand, we create a safe space to ask your questions, and share our nursing perspective without taking too much of your time."
Today's episode is part of our Maternal Health series. We're joined by Doula Alexandria Vaughn-Powe of Metro Detroit to talk about Doulas.
By the end of the episode, it’s our goal you’ll be able to discuss:
-The history and definition of doulas
-The mission of the Black Doulas Association
-The education and training doulas receive
-The importance of doulas before, during, and after pregnancy
-The services you can expect as a client
-The challenges to providing care or misconceptions people have about doulas
