Linda: Yo vi que la mayoría de los trabajadores en el hospital trataba mal a las parteras, incluso los doctores y las enfermeras. She was pleasantly surprised that in this one there was a space reserved for traditional midwives, but her initial excitement didn't last long. Martina: Linda's job was to evaluate the quality of public hospitals in all of Guatemala. Ahí las parteras podían ayudar a las mujeres antes, durante y después del parto, con la supervisión de un médico. Linda: A diferencia de una maternidad común, en ese hospital había una sala grande con unos sillones. It was in Sololá, in the west of the country. She had been working for the Ministry of Public Health in Guatemala for almost two years - when she first visited a hospital with a room for parteras, or traditional midwives. Linda Valencia came across something she had never seen before in her line of work. Thank you for your understanding and we hope you enjoy the episode. This episode touches on topics related to reproductive health and contraception.
