Logo
The Chapter's Logo was created by one of the members and comprises a mother and child closely linked.  The figures focus  in midwifery and gynaecological care.

The color blue was chosen to depict the calm and serene environment in which these important people should be cared for.  The gold trimming symbolizes the sterling quality of care we continuously strive for.
