Everyone in maternity wards is underpaid and overworked, and the checklist is there and rigorously followed so we don't have mothers with c-sections tearing open on the way out because no one brought a wheelchair.
I don't understand that one very much. If walking is going to tear them open, isn't it better to have that happen at the hospital instead of half an hour later at home? I don't think much healing is going to happen in between.
Is the risk sufficiently on a per-step basis to make that worth it?
