You may have seen a few tweets lately with the hashtag #MidwifeMondays.
Midwives in Ontario are looking to get the attention of the provincial government and arrange a contract, something they haven’t had since April.
They’re encouraging Ontarians to tweet using #MidwifeMondays and share why they feel midwives are important to society.
Nicole Roach with the St Jacobs Midwives tells 570 News, they believe the campaign to be working.
“We know that we have got their attention and they seem to be a bit more interested in talking to us, so we’re really excited about that.”
They are also encouraging people to send a tweet to Eric Hoskins and Premier Kathleen Wynne, letting them know that midwifery care is valuable to the health care system.
