Once testing for your child is completed, the bloodspot card still has beneficial public health uses—from quality assurance and quality control of the newborn screening tests for these disorders to research that seeks more effective ways to test, treat and hopefully cure serious childhood diseases. For any uses outside of the Department of State Health Services (DSHS), identifying information is removed so that researchers, for example, would never be able to connect anything they find from the bloodspot with the identity of the child from which it came. Identifying information linking a child to a particular bloodspot is not allowed outside of DSHS without advance consent of the child’s parent, managing conservator or legal guardian unless otherwise provided by law. |

Our family had the blessing of working with Beth Overton and Liz Derry during the pregnancy, labor, and delivery of our sixth child. After moving to the Valley late in the pregnancy and searching unsuccessfully for a midwife in the area, we were thrilled to find Beth through the ATM website.
My husband and I read through the information Beth had posted on her website and we were pleased with her godly beliefs and natural outlook on pregnancy and childbirth. After our first visit we were sure Beth was the midwife God had planned for this birth. Having decided to go with an apprentice delivery, we were thrilled to meet Liz on our second prenatal visit. We could not have asked for a sweeter, more capable assistant.
