Interpret and analyse midwifery clinical situations on the basis of sound knowledge of physiological concepts and research informed evidence base of midwifery practice.

/in /by

Midwives are the lead practitioners in the care of low risk women during pregnancy, labour and the post-partum period. When risk factors are identified, care may be given by a multi-disciplinary team. It is your role as a midwife to ensure that the woman has an experience of maternity care which appropriately identifies the risks to her health whilst ensuring that she is cared for holistically and is facilitated to make evidence-based informed choices about her care. To do this, midwives must have a critical appreciation of the research on which the clinical guidelines are based.
