A moment with Adela Hamilton (Research/PhD Midwife). . . .
.
Having worked as a midwife in Scotland, Ireland and
Switzerland, I have learned a lot about respecng the
cultures and values of others when discussing issues within
the midwifery eld. My interest in preeclampsia stems from
my encounters with extremely ill mothers and babies
throughout my career. I was disappointed with the
informaon available on the origin and treatment of the
disease unl I acquired a copy of Preeclampsia-The Facts.
This book led me to realise that one way of caring for women was
to taketheir stories and experiences into beer account. To build
upon this theory, I
am researching the acceptability of women, their partners, and
professionals
of the ESTEEM dietary intervenon.
Working at the hospital gave me access to the Women’s Health
Research
Unit and I am delighted to be carrying out my research alongside
the ESTEEM
trial. Besides being a developmental opportunity, this is a
substantial study
that could improve care for mothers and babies. At RLH, I
participate in the
recruitment and clinical aspects of ESTEEM, giving me the chance
to meet
with women and adjust my study agenda. I am still developing the
qualitative
aspect of my project and will soon be submitting it for ethics
approval whichwill allow me to approach participants and begin
gathering data for my
research.
Welcome to the h edion of the ESTEEM newsleer! This month,
we
would like to focus on the benets of all your hard work with the
