This unit develops students’ competence in demonstrating evidence-informed skills for practice and decision-making with women and babies in a range of maternity care settings. The National Competency Standards for the Midwife form the core framework used to demonstrate that the midwifery student is able to practice at the level of a beginning practitioner in midwifery. This unit further emphasises collegiality, collaboration and team work as integral to midwifery practice and philosophies as well as to the development of the student as a practitioner within an interdisciplinary health and community setting. |
