“I’m a Santa Monica mother, so I’m excited to bring this opportunity to my community,” says Erin DeTura, a at UCLA Health. “We moved our clinic from in Westwood to . The move has been amazing. We’re able to give full midwifery care with a more focused, attentive, quiet space. I became a nurse when I saw the deficit in women’s health care. My mom was a midwife, and I saw how different birth could be, so I wanted to make a difference and be a change for women. At every birth, I look people in the eye and treat them like a human being. Even if they don’t have the birth they envisioned, they’ve had the respect that they deserved.”
