This study demonstrated favourable outcomes for women receiving MGP who planned to birth at home compared to those women who chose a hospital birth. This is consistent with the existing literature that place of birth makes a difference. A description of the role of a mentor in supporting the sustainability of a publicly funded homebirth program is provided. Further research is recommended to evaluate the mentor's role in implementing and sustaining the model.
