Michaela Buhrs
Registered Midwife, Nurse Prescriber
|
Michaela trained as a Registered Midwife and Nurse in the UK. Arriving in NZ in 2018, she worked at Te Whatu Ora Waikato initially as a Core Midwife then a Clinical Midwife Specialist with the Child Protection team. This experience evidenced barriers women encounter accessing local fertility choices, and unplanned children in poverty and neglect who can later experience mental health issues. Michaela wanted to do something about this complex issue. Michaela is on path to being a Nurse Practitioner with intentions of setting up a drop-in, open access sexual health clinic with LARCs (long-acting reversible contraceptives) for rural areas.
