Skills for Midwifery Practice, 4e

Product Information

We aim to help you develop the clinical, communication and thinking skills needed to provide high-quality, evidence-based midwifery care for women, people and families from a range of diverse backgrounds, as well as to coordinate services from the wider health, social care and voluntary sectors. We also accept applications from students who have achieved their qualifications over a number of years. Midwifery Practice 1 supports you through your first experiences of caring directly for women/birthing people, their newborn infants and their families throughout the childbearing continuum through participation in continuity of midwifery carer. It explains the underlying physiology associated with pregnancy and childbirth, and clearly defines the nature and extent of current practice. If you require further clarification about the acceptability of this qualification please contact the Admissions office.
