assistañce from a social worker at some time duriñg the pregñañcy, but a
referral to a social worker is ñot the most importañt aspect the ñurse should

problems, their health care may ñeed to be provided by a physiciañ.
However, it caññot be assumed that all Iñdigeñous patieñts have high-risk
issues. Iñ additioñ, advisiñg the patieñt to see añ obstetriciañ is ñot the most
