Brief description Aboriginal women have long demanded changes in maternity healthcare services. It was anticipated that the implementation of a Midwifery Group Practice (MGP) would decrease fragmentation of care and improve maternal infant health outcomes. The research aims to determine if a changed model of care for remote dwelling Aboriginal women who transfer to Darwin for birth has increased the acceptability of services to women and improved outcomes for mothers and infants.
