Consulting and Advisory.
These sessions are flexible, available when you need them to help you respond to challenges within your practice …. things like setting boundaries, cash-flow and profitability, service and process design, what to charge, models of care, managing fatigue / on-call / burnout, collaboration, time management, managing complaints, investigations and notifications, review of your client contracts / agreements, debriefing, or just something you want to share and discuss with an independent and experienced midwife who has a grounded and savvy approach to business and midwifery care.
We delve into the nitty gritties …
What should I charge?
How should I structure a birth support service?
What’s my break-even point?
Any tips on getting along with the midwifery managers at my local hospital? I’m trying to get admitting rights there.
