The Power of Relationships in Group Care

Abstract

In this interview, group care researchers Jalana Lazar and Anna Horn discuss the lived experiences of group care, from the perspectives of those providing and receiving group care. Informed by their fieldwork, they unpick the web of relationships amongst women, midwives and other health care professionals. Together, they consider a key group care feature – relationship building – exploring the model’s potential to bridge interdisciplinary relationships and apply relational maternity care.
