"Ensure clear, meaningful risk communication" - Abigail Corbin

I love this thought. This is what we often mention to clients colloquially as "their sales pitch wasn't good" when some providers try to heartily scare clients rather than present evidence and intention for care. A midwife has to know how to explain the concern, how serious the consequences or risks can be, and leave the client with the options for care that are indicated and at the same time, allow for autonomous choice, discussion and decision-making.
