The Australian Rural Birthing Index (ARBI) Toolkit is a resource for planning maternity services in rural and remote Australia.
The Toolkit is an easy-to-use guide for health service planners and communities to:
• Calculate the Australian Rural Birth Index formula
• Estimate the appropriate level of maternity service for a given community based on need
• Consider contextual and planning issues in rural and remote maternity care
The Toolkit was actively shaped by researchers, health service planners and experts. It is a valuable resource for planners and communities
