Can Doulas Make an Impact in the Healthcare System?
Manage episode 435159920 series 3574233
If you’ve been a doula for longer than a minute, you know that it’s about so much more than being present at birth. In fact, there’s so much to being a doula that this is the second part of my conversation with Flor, a Latina doula known as Badass Mother Birther, so go check out my last episode with her before diving into this one. You won’t regret it!
In this episode, we talk about Medicaid reimbursements for doulas and whether or not doulas should be regulated and by whom. We also discuss the questions that birthing people should ask a doula before they hire them and what doulas should do to take care of themselves and to prevent secondary trauma and burnout. If you’re a busy doula, you should definitely take some notes!
Stay to the end to hear about Flor’s next big project and don’t forget to subscribe to the Found Free podcast to hear more episodes about social equality, entrepreneurship, justice work and more.
