Birthing in Our Community: gold standard Indigenous maternal infant health
Purpose:
Birthing in Our Community (BiOC) is an Indigenous-led Maternal Infant Health program designed and implemented in Brisbane. BiOCs outcomes, published in the Lancet Global Health (2021), show a 50% reduction in pre-term births, improvement in healthy weight babies, increased antenatal visits and an increase in exclusively breastfeeding at discharge. The project will extend the reach of BiOC to three settings and follow cohorts of families (n=~1800) to assess clinical outcomes and program acceptability.
