YOUR RIGHTS arise from the Act on the Organizational Standard of Perinatal Care, included in the regulation of the Ministry of Health.
This Standard defines how care should be organized for women during pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and for newborns. It is based on procedures of proven effectiveness and aims to improve the quality of care for both mother and child.
What’s important is that the Standard applies to all medical facilities providing perinatal care.
Its main goal is to ensure that you can give birth safely, with medical interventions reduced to the necessary minimum.
And if you’re feeling unsure about how the Polish medical system works or a bit lost when planning your birth in Poland, you can hire my doula services for continuous guidance and support throughout your birthing journey. 🤱✨
