Stephanie White is the new Managing Editor of FirefighterNation.com. I spoke with her over year ago and we talked about all things pregnancy in the fire service. Her work with the Beltane Guild assisted departments in writing policies and procedures for pregnancy and postpartum as well as grants for those struggling to start a family. One thing to remember is that better policies for females equals better policies for all in the fire service. Here is our conversation the first time we sat down, and you can absolutely look forward to a new on in the near future.
Original show notes: Stephanie White is a full time firefighter with over 20 years of experience who works with an organization called the Beltane Guild to assist departments in creating and instituting pregnancy and postpartum policies and programs.
She has presented along with the IAFF on the topic and Fire Engineering has given her the reigns of the Five After Midnight Podcast.
Stephanie speaks from personal experience and integrates contemporary science and research to inform, educate, and improve the fire service.
