New Zealand extends postnatal hospital stays to 3 days to improve maternal and infant health.
新西兰政府通过了一项法案,将新生儿母亲的产后住院时间从目前的48小时延长到3天,目的是改善产妇和婴儿的健康状况。
New Zealand’s government has adopted a bill to extend postnatal hospital stays for new mothers to three days, up from the current 48 hours, aiming to improve maternal and infant health outcomes.
这项改革由国会议员凯瑟琳·韦德提出,并得到卫生部长西梅昂·布朗和副卫生部长凯西·科斯特洛的支持,目的是让母亲有更多时间恢复、与婴儿建立纽带和获得护理。
The change, introduced by National MP Catherine Wedd and supported by Health Minister Simeon Brown and Associate Health Minister Casey Costello, is intended to give mothers more time to recover, bond with their babies, and access care.
该法案现已成为政府立法方案的一部分,卫生部已指示准备执行,但人们仍然担心已经负担过重的产妇服务可能面临压力。
The bill is now part of the government’s legislative programme, with the Ministry of Health directed to prepare for implementation, though concerns remain about potential strain on already stretched maternity services.
