Alabama Department of Health is Attempting to BLOCK Birth Sanctuary Gainesville by proposing 50 pages of rules and regulations Regarding birth centers in the state (BTW there is only one ☝🏾 midwifery proposed Birth Center in the State... @the.birth.sanctuary 🤗 The state currently has ZERO options for birth centers) . Public hearings are in Montgomery Alabama on 8/18 at 10 AM . Phone numbers of responsible parties will be forthcoming. . I would like to remind you that I am a certified nurse midwife (CNM) and made to become a certified professional midwife (CPM) in order to practice out of hospital. !!️THESE PROPOSED RULES: make it so the CPM designation I received will not be enough to open a birth center!!️ . Tell me this isn’t about women, or babies, or families, or health care accessibility in Alabama‘s black belt without telling me this isn’t about women or babies or families or healthcare accessibility in Alabama‘s black belt
