I was super excited to see this article today. It's been a long time coming and in my opinion, an obvious and necessary shift in how we facilitate birth. I think birth centres are the ideal compromise between hospital and home for women who want to avoid the medicalization of childbirth, but feel safer knowing that those interventions are there if warranted.
I hope these Ontario pilots are a success and that we see this influence birthing facilities across the country!
