| SI Adelaide Birthing in the Pacific |  |  | | Written by Pam Lacey | | Wednesday, 07 December 2011 |
Kath Gribble (Barossa) Lesley Jaensch (President SI Adelaide), Celyn Tusalah and Veronica Edoni with Pat Ellis (SI Adelaide..now a close friend of both).
Celyn Tusalah is studying for her Masters in Midwifery at Flinders University of Adelaide. At the end of October she spoke at our region meeting on Birthing in Bougainville, an under resourced area. Celyn's presentation was both inspiring and thought provoking. One of the problems she mentioned was the non availability of gloves, when delivering babies.!!
Kath Gribble who works in Infection Control in Tanunda (Barossa Valley) was propelled into action and within less than a month, had secured a large donation of gloves from Kimberly-Clark. The presentation took place on Monday 28th November. Celyn and Veronica are thrilled!! SI Adelaide will organise freight.
