The standard of care for pregnant women can be vastly different in other countries, but some Bathurst midwives are doing their bit to help close the gap.
For the past four years, Carla Cromie, Melissa Grabham, Tammy Stewart and Amy Turnbull have been making trips to Vanuatu to provide extra support to maternity wards on both the north and south islands.
All four midwives work at Bathurst Base Hospital and travel overseas during their annual leave.
