What is Homebirth Victoria doing?
We are comitted to improving access to homebirth, through education, sharing information, creating community, dispelling myths, and promoting use of homebirth services.
Professional Indemnity Insurance Issue (2024 - current)
We are actively working with other consumer groups to address the serious concerns with the governments announcement regarding funding PII for Homebirth Midwives attending 'low risk' homebirths.
GP Education // Removal of Collaborative Agreement
We recognise that most women seek GP support in early pregnancy and therefore, even in the absense of a collaborative agreement (ending in November 2024), we are working on creating a resource for GP's to quickly access when providing local pregnancy information.
Working with PFHB Programs
We continue to attempt collaboration with PFHB programs to ensure adequate consumer input from homebirthing families.
