New Survey hopes to highlight issues of Consent and Availability of Information in the Irish Maternity System

AIMS Ireland (Association for Improvements in the Maternity Services) would like to release the web-link to our most recent online survey concerning the availability of information and consent within the Irish Maternity System.
Please see a brief summary below of the aims and objectives of this survey.

Availability of Information and Consent

The aim of this survey is to determine the availability of information to women in pregnancy and how this effects informed consent in labour, birth, and post-natal period. Further aims are to determine if consent is absolute in relevant instances.
All medical procedures, tests, and treatments require informed consent by law. Informed consent is when information is presented to women in order for them to decide if they wish to consent to a procedure, test or treatment.
Informed Consent by definition is to assist woman in understanding Why the procedure, test or treatment is being suggested, How the procedure is performed, and any Risks and/or Benefits attributed with the procedure.

many people do not get adequate information on their rights and its important to know
what should be available to people with regard to education and rights in the maternity system.
