2025 is an important year for midwifery in the NWT as it marks 20 years of midwifery services at the Health Centre in Fort Smith and 10 years of midwifery services at the Health Centre in Hay River!
Our members are planning exciting events to mark these important milestones in the coming months and we’re seeking photos and stories from you!
Fort Smith:
We are working with the Northwest Territories Health Authority and Our Babies Our Families to plan an event in Fort Smith on Monday May 5, which aligns with International Day of the Midwife.
If you have been a client, midwife, or student midwife with the Fort Smith Midwifery Program and have any photos you would like to share for a slideshow at our celebration please send them to photos@nwtmidwives.ca with the subject line “Fort Smith”. If you would like to share a story about your experience with midwifery care in Fort Smith, please feel free to send that along too!
In order for us to include your photo in the slideshow, we need to receive it by May 3, 2025.
By sending a photo or story to us, you are granting us permission to use it at our celebration event.
Hay River:
We are working on an event to celebrate the Hay River Midwifery Program’s 10 year anniversary later this year.
If you have been a client, midwife, or student midwife with the Hay River Midwifery Program and have any photos you would like to share for a slideshow at our celebration please send them to photos@nwtmidwives.ca with the subject line “Hay River”.
