Birth places: A geographical perspective on planned home birth in New Zealand

Place and space in relation to childbirth: a critical interpretive synthesis

“…Finally, Fahy and Parrat (Coxon et al, 2015) used the concept jurisdiction, meaning, "having power to do as one wants". This is similar to our finding of the territorial space emphasized by the woman's need to own the space during childbirth (Abel & Kearns, 1991;Bernhard et al, 2014;Lee et al, 2016;Lock & Gibb, 2003;Mondy et al, 2016;Newburn, 2012;Nilsson et al, 2010;Seibold et al, 2010).…”

Swedish Women's Interest in Home Birth and In‐Hospital Birth Center Care

“…Continuity of caregiver (e.g., having a known midwife present during labor and birth) was also more important, and women wanted to be more actively involved in their care. Studies in other countries have reported similar findings (4,14).…”

“…In our study only 1 percent consistently expressed an interest in home birth when asked in early pregnancy, at 2 months, and at 1 year after childbirth. This percentage may be a more realistic estimation of Swedish‐speaking women's interest in home birth, and it is close to the actual birth rate in countries with a more liberal attitude to home births than Sweden, such as England (2) and New Zealand (4), countries where home birth may be presented as an option, at least in certain regions. A home birth rate of 1 percent is 10 times higher then the actual home birth rate in Sweden.…”

Children Receiving Chemotherapy at Home: Perceptions of Children and Parents

“…The home has reemerged as an alternative or preferred setting for interventions, including home education (Knowles, 1989), the promotion of child health (Close et al, 1995), chronic care (McKeever & Miller, 2004), and palliative care (Abel & Kearns, 1991). The children and parents in the current study preferred having their chemotherapy at home, thus adding to this past literature demonstrating the benefits of using the home as an alternative setting for delivering care to children.…”
