Join Emeritus Professor George G. Youngson on Zoom to discuss his book Bringing Life to Aberdeen with the Aberdeen and North East branch of The Saltire Society.
Bringing Life to Aberdeen chronicles the history and development of midwifery and maternity services since their inception in Aberdeen.
How did Aberdeen revolutionise modern midwifery and mother and baby care? Whether you were born in – or gave birth in – Aberdeen or elsewhere, you will probably have benefitted from the pioneering work of some of the people mentioned in this book.
Bringing Life to Aberdeen highlights many of the individuals who have made major contributions to the advancement of midwifery and neonatal services, and describes their influence and impact. Foremost amongst these are the lasting and defining accomplishments of Professor Sir Dugald Baird and Lady May Baird who give their name to a new hospital dedicated to the care of women and their babies in North East Scotland, known as the Baird Family Hospital.
