Pre-Hospital Care Podcast Maternity Part 1 with Stacey Robinson
In this episode Caroline Philips interviews Stacey Robinson; pre-hospital midwife, on a variety of maternity and newborn topics that pre-hospital providers might face on scene. Having embedded herself within an ambulance service, Stacey gives a unique and insightful perspective on common myths, unique presentations, and healthy fundamental baselines of maternal and newborn care.
This is a four part series, in this episode Stacey unpacks her role, the 'normal labour' scenario and deviation in physiology to be expected in pregnancy. They look at why physiology changes and some of the important details around history and examination. They also examine some of the non-pharmacological methods of optimising birth (skin to skin, micturition, non-technical skills, drying).

You will acquire the digital skills to both create and harness cumulative attention to knowledge domains and speakers through the podcast platform and co-aligned spaces. As a Fellow you also gain access to Medics.Academy workshops, courses, resources, discounts and masters level accreditation. We are continuously developing the programme to make it a robust and exciting experience for those that are successful in joining. The Fellowship Programme is for a duration of 18 months and comprises three phases:
· skill training and learning,
· skill development
· skill application
The phases progress the fellow from a stage of independent working to small group and eventually large group production of a project. In each phase you will be mentored and guided by a specific individual within the company who has experience in producing aspects of the project. On average a fellow will spend 3-6 hours a week in producing the task and the timeframe for tasks will become more independently governed by the fellow as they progress into the next phases. This programme is ideal for individuals with other commitments as it provides a flexible working environment.
As a Fellow you can enrol in the post graduate certification programme (PG Cert) in Clinical Practice, Management and Education. This programme is run by Medics.Academy and accredited by the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) Medical School. The work you do as a Fellow will count towards the overall requirements of the PG Cert. For the joint Medics.Academy Fellowship Programme with postgraduate certificate we require the programme to be completed in 18 months with a potential for a six-month extension to complete programme assessments and elements.
