Health care experiences and birth outcomes: Results of an Aboriginal birth cohort.

Aboriginal women most at risk of poor infant health outcomes were the least likely to perceive that they received care well matched to their needs. Building stronger evidence about what works to create cultural safety in perinatal health care is an urgent priority.
