EBB 181- Restoring Black-led Nurse-Midwifery Care in Alabama with Dr. Stephanie Mitchell

EBB 181- Restoring Black-led Nurse-Midwifery Care in Alabama with Dr. Stephanie Mitchell

On today's podcast, we're going to talk with Dr. Stephanie Mitchell about starting a midwifery-led birth center.

Dr. Mitchell is a certified nurse-midwife who earned her BSN from Curry College, along with her MSN and her doctorate of Nursing Practice from Frontier Nursing University. Dr. Mitchell is the founder of The Birth Sanctuary of Gainesville, Alabama, a freestanding birth center under development that will be the first Black-owned birth center in the state. She is actively involved in teaching others on Instagram as @doctor_midwife.

We will talk about Dr. Mitchell's journey to becoming a nurse-midwife and her passion for restoring Black-led midwifery care to the people of Alabama. We also talk about how Dr. Mitchell calls out harmful obstetric practices against Black birthing bodies, and how she advocates for the importance of creating safer and affirmative services in perinatal healthcare.

**Content warning: We talk about implicit bias and racism.**
