Understanding the Birth Crisis: A Structural Collapse Perspective
What happens when maternity care deserts stop being just a “rural problem” and start impacting your own labor and delivery unit? On this episode of BackTable Women’s Health, host Dr. Nicole Faulkner interviews Dr. Yamicia Connor about the evolving “birth worker crisis.” Dr. Connor reframes the issue as a long-standing structural collapse accelerated by deliberate policy decisions, not simply sudden burnout.
