Thrive in LMC Practice - Business Workshops

Being an LMC midwife today asks far more than providing exceptional midwifery care.

You are also managing a business, navigating claiming and cashflow, planning for time off and backup, responding to increasing digital demands, and trying to build sustainable ways of working — often while carrying significant workload and on-call pressure.

To support this reality, MMPO is pleased to bring back our free LMC focussed business workshops: Thrive in LMC Practice - supporting sustainable LMC midwifery
These practical, non-clinical workshops have been designed specifically for community LMC midwives and LMC group practices who want to strengthen systems, build better business confidence, and more sustainable practice models.

Workshop topics include:
Individual LMC business health (Understanding practice costs, tax, ACC, GST, KiwiSaver, Xero vs Hnry, and future financial planning)
Claims, cashflow & confidence (Section 94 basics, claiming rhythms, corrections, cashflow confidence and reducing financial stress)
Group practice, backup & reciprocity (Shared expectations, fair reciprocity, backup systems, handover processes and acknowledging invisible workload)
Risk, digital safety & time off planning (Tiaki Scribe and AI safety, privacy risk, insurance, continuity planning, locums and sustainable time off planning)

These sessions are designed to be interactive, practical, relevant and immediately useful — whether you are a new graduate LMC, an experienced midwife, or part of a wider group practice.

Workshops are being held across Aotearoa and are free to all College midwife members.

We would love to see you there as we work together to strengthen sustainable LMC midwifery practice across Aotearoa.
