Caroline Flint, SRN, SCM, ADM, Independent Midwife, Private Practice, London
Description
Caroline has the ability to articulate and make public the issues which have concerned, irritated, excited, frustrated and saddened midwives
everywhere - everyday topics such as uniform as well as far reaching developments like 'Changing Childbirth'. Her writing is a source
of inspiration to all midwives regardless of their place of work and type of practice. Caroline Flint has been a practising midwife
for 20 years. She was a community midwife at Guy's hospital, before becoming Research Midwife and 'Know Your Midwife' Scheme team leader
at St George's. She has been practising independently for seven years, in addition to acting as consultant midwife to Riverside Health
authority. She is, with her partners at Special Delivery Birth Practice, opening a Birth Centre in London. Caroline writes extensively
on professional issues. Her published works include 'Sensitive Midwifery', 'Community Midwifery' (with Mary Cronk) and 'Midwifery Teams
and Caseloads'. She regularly writes for consumer and professional journals.
