The Consumer Perspectives on Primary Birthing report analyses how Counties Manukau women chose their place of birth. The report is in response to the declining numbers of pregnant mothers utilising a primary setting for birth in Counties Manukau over the past two years. Research evidence, both local and international, supports well, pregnant women (with no pregnancy complications or risk of developing complications) to birth in a primary setting. The report was commissioned by the Primary Birth Steering Group, and funded by the Maternity Quality and Safety programme.
