Prairie Mountain Health has paused birth and on-call services for midwives from April 1st to September 30th .

Midwives will still provide care before and after a baby is born, but the birth itself will be handled by doctors and nurses at hospitals in Brandon , Dauphin and Neepawa .

Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara promised on Tuesday that women would still be taken care of.

The pause is down to an unforeseen staffing shortage.
