Adelaide Mums and Babies Clinic Senate Submission Survey

AMBC is preparing a submission to the Australian Senate inquiry into women’s health and we want the experiences of our patients to help inform it. This short survey asks about your experience of postnatal care - what was challenging, what helped, and what you think could be improved. Responses are anonymous and will be collated to inform AMBC’s submission. De-identified comments may also be included. The survey takes approximately 3–5 minutes. Thank you for helping us advocate for better postnatal care for Australian women and families.
