TheBirthSurvey.com Michigan Stats Will Be Available by April 1!

“It has been easier to get consumer satisfaction information about a camera than about maternity care services – but no longer. The Coalition for Improving Maternity Services (CIMS) has developed www.TheBirthSurvey.com a consumer feedback website where women provide information about the maternity care they received – with specific doctors, midwives, hospitals, and birth centers. Families choosing where and with whom to birth can utilize this consumer feedback, along with data on hospital and birth center intervention rates and practices, to make informed health care choices.

Have you given birth in the last three years? If so, take The Birth Survey and provide feedback on your doctor, midwife, birth cener, or hospital at www.TheBirthSurvey.com

Then, in April, see the results of other women who have entered their birth information into the website about facilities and providers near you.
