Aunty Gina explains why programs like Baggarrook are so crucial to improving outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait mothers and babies: “Like any other organisation, public or government, you get that ‘Them blackfellas, here they go again ....’ It's not about that. It's about providing a service to community, communities that never used to have these services. 20 years is relatively new, having a KMS [Koori Maternity Service]. But to have a Baggarrook caseload within a public hospital is even newer, and creating these services for Aboriginal people. Historically, we've created them because we didn't have them. We weren't allowed to have them, or it was really hard to get them. So we created our own.”Learn more about this award-winning midwifery program: Woman’s Journey: Baggarrook Yurrongi, Nurragh Manma Buliana.Aunty Gina was recently awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia in recognition of her service to Victoria’s Indigenous community.
