How did the pandemic change the landscape of maternal healthcare? Senior Lecturer in Publishing at Oxford Brookes, Dr Antonia Mackay, explores the digitisation of maternal healthcare during COVID-19, revealing the challenges, unintended consequences, and lasting impact of shifting essential care to virtual platforms. From the increased role of surveillance in maternity services to the isolation felt by new mothers, Antonia discusses her research, personal experiences, and how a groundbreaking theatrical production brought these hidden stories to life. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation on technology, motherhood, and the future of maternal care.
