Amity Reed became a midwife to serve women, but the reality of working in overstretched and underfunded NHS maternity services soon shattered her illusions. She’s not alone - for every 30 midwives that train, 29 will leave the profession.
Overdue is both the devastating personal story behind the statistics, and a call for change in the NHS. Real-life stories capture the moments at the heart of midwifery: life, death, birth, tragedy, and joy and are embedded in a clear-sighted examination of what is working - and what isn’t - in maternity services.
The result is a book that asks - and tries to answer - questions that are at the heart of many people’s working lives: how can we follow our calling, provide for our families, and keep ourselves healthy, if the workplace and its systems are working against us?
