Access to Care and Medications During Pregnancy: Perspectives of Newcomers.

03 Sep 2024

Videos

Navigating the world of medications during pregnancy can be complex, and for women newly immigrated to Canada, this challenge can feel even more daunting.

We are pleased to present this special video, born from a rewarding collaboration with the Perinatal Referral Service for Immigrant Women of Quebec.

In this video, hosted by Vanina Tchuente and Émy Roberge, women who have recently arrived in Quebec share their unique experiences. They discuss their journeys, the impact of medications on their pregnancies, and the obstacles they have overcome as new arrivals.

Take a moment to discover their stories, get informed, and share this video with other moms so that everyone feels supported and understood.
