Miss Sparrow explains that, in preparation for launching the EPEP, two Memorial Hospital Maternity staff members visited various hospitals to determine what they offered their maternity patients. As well, a committee consisting of women who had previously delivered at Memorial Hospital, representatives from community pre-and post-natal care services, public health officials, officials, La maze (a form of natural childbirth) teachers, childbirth educators, and nutritionists discussed discussed needs of maternity patients and how best to serve them.
